I guess you can say I have been a little distracted this past month. David and I have been looking for a new home for over a year. Our realtor & friend, Stephanie, has been taking us out to look at houses about every few months to help us narrow down which neighborhoods we like in Coppell. Our goal in moving is to shorten David's commute and also increase the size of our home. We are very fortunate that we don't have to move by a certain time. It has been fun looking at homes, some are beautiful and others are not a fit for us (junky, small yard, choppy design, etc).
The weekend before Christmas we looked at a home that has been on the market since the summer. After several contracts, it still hasn't sold. Their bank is very uncooperative. We have submitted 3 offers and none have been accepted. We have continued to look at other homes but none we have liked as much. We also looked at a house that was on the market last year. Evidently the new owners are moving and we still really like the house.
We have spent time in prayer seeking God's guidance. We have a peace from God but we hold on to the hope of moving soon.

How exciting! Can't wait to hear where you end up. Coppell has great schools. ;-)
House hunting is fun and stressful. Glad you aren't in a hurry. Just wait on God and the right house will appear.
And your Realtor is very patient and doesn't want you to settle for anything less than the perfect house!!! :)
Take your time... there is a reason for certain that your offer hasn't been accepted. God knows where you need to be.. who your neighbors need to be and what school your kids need to go too....
can't wait to hear as you continue searching..keep us posted.
Everything happens for a reason, that is what Joel and have to keep saying. I can not wait to see this weekend!!
