Blessings

Hello family! How are you all? We miss you and are sad that we won't be able to visit you until next year. The reason is that we're tight on money right now...but for good reason! If you haven't heard..we're buying a house! It's happened kind of suddenly but it's all been a huge blessing. The Lord's hand has been in everything and we're so grateful.
For instance:
We actually had planned to move out and had found a condo that we wanted to move into. It was going to be about $700 a month. We knew it would take us longer to buy a House but we needed space of our own. Right before that all finished and we were about to move, my parents' next door neighbor happened to be outside while my mom was getting home from her daily walk. She mentioned that they were selling her mother's home and that they thought it would be perfect for us. It's a 3 bedroom 2 bath for only 79,900! We went and looked at it and decided we wanted to buy, especially after they told us they would pay all the closing costs and what our down payment would be. We realized we could afford it. Everything with all the paperwork and loans has worked out so well. our credit score came back well and everything is just right.
then we had the inspection. That's where I thought that our blessings had run out. There were some things in need of repair that would cost some money. I was little worried, but we decided to just submit those things to the seller and see what they would be willing to fix. one issue was the oven. It had literally been there when the house was built...in 1975. The calibration was completely off. Well the sellers went and bought us a brand new oven and stove with a microwave built over the top. Blessing! Then the AC needed servicing so they brought in a repairman and got the compressor replaced. Blessing! There weer also some plumbing issues since the house hasn't been used in a little while. they had those fixed. Blessing! And finally, the toilet in the hall bathroom wasn't flushing properly. So they replaced it. Blessing!
Anyway, as you can see we are doing well. I cannot even express my gratitude. Also during the inspection I found 2 pomegranate trees, a pecan tree (that' huge and will house a future tree house), a lemon tree, and possibly some berry bushes. The yard is pretty good sized and has a beautiful deck. There is a lot of yard work to be done but Adrian's actually pretty excited about that. And there's a perfect spot for his vegetable garden! oh and did I mention that it's fully furnished and we can keep whatever we want (including a beautiful dining room table)? Yep, pretty awesome.
So hopefully if everything keeps on schedule we'll have a new address come December 1! It'll be 19426 Gooselake Lane Houston, TX 77084. But I'll let you know the exact date to start using that address once we get closer.
I hope everyone else is doing well! We love you!
