It's official-our house is for sale!!!

The sign went up Monday morning and box went on Sunday night after pictures were taken of our home!


A range of emotions has occured the past few days once we decided to put it on the market last weekend. Once Stephanie showed us the lockbox and talked about a sign in the yard, David and I looked at each other like this is really real!

We have debated for a couple of months whether it was time to move or stay. From a few blogs ago you might know we have been looking and put a few offers on a certain home. That home is still not on the market but there has been another house but we are still unsure as to if we want to put an offer towards the sellers. We are very selective in the city, size of the house, size of yard, and many other things. This week we even started thinking about Flower Mound as well as Coppell.


Right now our focus is our own home. Since we don't have a peace about making an offer we have decided to try to sell ours. We have even agreed to live in an apartment temporarily until it is time for us to buy a new home.

It is all in God's hands! We know he will take care of us and lead us in the right direction. Pray for us and let us know if anyone wants a fabulous 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 living, real hardwood floors, and a huge yard!
We were at Walmart when Stephanie put out the sign which was quiet interesting to see when we got home. As you can tell by John David's hands we were buying things to prepare our home to be sold-Magic Erasers, candles, air freshners, and even a few plants. (He is also holding ziploc bags.) We haven't anyone look yet but there is an Open House on Sunday from 2-4 pm.

Distracted...

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.
