Eureka- we found it!
We were able to purchase a home, finally closing this week. We made our first offer on it at the beginning of February, so it's taken awhile. It was a foreclosure, but is in pretty good shape considering all the other stuff we saw. Still, we have A LOT of projects ahead of us. Dewain is scraping popcorn ceiling as I type. I weed-whacked half the backyard before Nathan needed a nap, but now the swingset it usable. It can entertain Joshua for hours while I work inside. If you want to check out the before pictures follow this link to a slideshow.
The house is two story, has 5 bedrooms (all upstairs), 2.5 bathrooms, as well as the kitchen, dining room, etc. The backyard is not too deep, but very wide. We are excited to have room for a garden and to put in a few fruit trees. It needs quite a bit of work before we can plant anything, since the grass is dried up and the dirt was compacted by the previous owner's dog(s).
We have about 3 weeks to be completely out of our current place and have it cleaned and shampooed and keys turned in. Wish us luck. We've done quite a bit of packing (thanks Mom), but the work never ends!
p.s.- our house is on Eureka Way
