It's Official!

The sign was updated today when we got home. This house has been so good to Ashley and a great purchase. It's just so beautiful and quiet here...its hard to say were leaving. We're so happy the new owners saw the same features and put in an offer.


...here we come Garner!!!!

We close on our new house July 7th & here on July 10th. Busy week- seeking volunteers!!

I (Ashley) have to add in all the details! God is good! The house we bought was one we saw the 1st day we went out. We fell in love with it & compared every house since to it. We finally decided it was time to make an offer. We went to VA for Mother's Day & most of the way home we talked about houses & tried to make a plan. Seth says, " I think we should put an offer in tomorrow." Great I thought! Then, reality hit me- but what about our house? What if it takes a while longer to sell? The questions set in & I started to worry, most of you know I love to over analyze & worry!! Seth's response- "Where's your faith?" We had prayed about this move since the beginning & felt that God was in control of it all & had a peace He would work it all out. He had a point- God would provide & we had to trust Him. We prayed about it, went in on Monday afternoon & wrote up an offer. Monday night the listing agency called to say they were showing our house on Tuesday night. Excited!!! Tuesday night they called to extend the showing time....even more excited! We heard great things from their visit & anxiously awaited... On Wednesday we finalized our contract on our new house & 1st thing Thursday morning my phone rang! It was our agent & she had an offer on our house! We worked it out that day & it was all settled! 1 bought, 1 sold, dates set, get the boxes ready! God is good! It will be hard to say goodbye here, but we're excited at all that is to come!
