SOLD!

Clint and I have been so patient for so long.  We were young and just starting our lives together when we bought our first house. Who knew we would live there for the next 11+ years.
We have tried to sell it before...actually had a buyer but they backed out on us at the last minute. We were heart broken at the time as we had made an offer on a new construction home. So we decided to wait. Which worked out fine because we decided to have Kaylee. And then Clint had lost his high paying job. We were probably lucky we didn't end up in a bad situation. 
Anyway, we did some work to ours and stayed there for a few more years.  Then a few months ago Clint was casually talking to our "buyer" and asked him of he wanted to buy our house.  Who knew after months of talking that he would actually buy it. We feel really lucky it was so easy. Who knew that a friendly conversation would lead us here. Kind of nervous but to be expected.
After we met with him last night a little part of me was sad. This was the home where Clint and I got married., where we lost our first dog Percy, where we had Logan and Kaylee,  had all of our ups and downs. But again this is something we have wanted for so long.

We have plans to build a new house this spring. We have been pre-approved for a mortgage. We have picked out a house plan. We have picked out the lot. We have the build list ready to go. Our next step is to meet with the loan officer about the construction loan. As long as that goes well, we will be building a house in just a matter of a few weeks.

Our future home: Can you picture it???

 
This is the style that we are going for. It will look simlar to this...not blue. It will not have the 3rd garage bay. But you get the picture.
 
 
Floor plan.
