House

I've been reluctant to post because I just haven't been able to believe it, but we got a house!!!
We never even looked in Provo, but it turns out that is where we bought a house!
It is RIGHT on the border of Provo and Orem in the Grandview area.
It is a very nice neighborhood and the church and elementary school are only about a block and a half away.
The house is near the end of a cul-de-sac, which is always fantastic!
It is a bit older - built in 1999 and is VERY unique!
The kitchen is totally gourmet.
Double ovens.
Viking Range.
Sub zero Fridge and Freezer
Wood Fireplace with Pizza oven and indoor grill.
The kitchen, dining room and family room are large and they flow together to create a nice open space.
The kids will be in the basement and they will each have their own bedroom, bathroom, and playroom.
Lucky us for only having 2 kids!!!
We are going to see it again today and taking a lot of my family, so I am excited to go through it again. We've contacted our bank and locked in a great rate - 5% - and we will be having an inspector come in later this week.
Assuming the inspection goes well and nothing horrific happens with our financing, we should be in the house in the next 30-60 days......hopefully 30!
We have had such drama with this whole buying-a-new-house thing and it feels good just to have a place locked down!
We are praying and crossing our fingers that all goes well!!!
Yippee for us!!!

I will post pictures of the house soon!!
