We are so excited to announce that our long awaited short sale is finally over...we have been in the short sale process on our new house since February 3rd! That's a total of 9.5 months! Yes, it has felt like forever. Our patience almost wore out and we began looking at other properties. We had found a second home we liked but just couldn't decide what to do...this is where this crazy journey gets confirmed to us as a true blessing!
I believe it was 3 weeks ago, on a Monday, we went into our church to meet with our pastor. We had gotten to the point that we just didn't know what to do with the short sale property and this new house. The new house was ready to move in, had great features for our family, we could hold small events if we wanted to but I just want sold. Phil definitely was! The other house (short sale) worried us because we knew we had 3 months of renovations which put us moving in around Christmas, which is also pretty close to when we expect these twins to arrive. I kept trying to have faith that God always has a plan that is larger than we know, he wouldn't have blessed us with twins if he didn't think we would have a home to bring them into. Phil was mostly worried about me, the stress of moving really pregnant and renovations while knowing the twins are on they're way. So this was why we went to meet with our pastor. We asked him about our prayers and really how to know when God was speaking to us. Pastor Tom, was in the middle of telling us how it's ok to ask God a specific question in your prayers and then move forward if it is not answered. If God does not want us to change our path he will guide us in the direction he wants us to go one way or another. Then as he was telling us this Phil receiveda text from our realtor. Lisa told us that the short sale house was ours and escrow would begin the next day!
Here is the beginning of we started!
