Time to pack!

Hubbie and I had been discussing buying a home for a while. The opportunity presented itself a few weeks ago and we made an offer, only later to find out that there was a $150k lien on the property. Tragic? Yes, but we were fortunate enough to find an even better home, 10 houses down from the first one. We placed an offer on the second home and they accepted. 

But, it hasn't been that easy. In the midst of all of this, the economy took a downfall and they started talking about a bailout bill and the possibility of credit coming to a halt. To make a long story short, it's been a crazy few weeks and I've endured many headaches, BUT there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. Yesterday, we were told that our loan was approved and we are closing on October 28. 

To make matters just a little more complicated, I'll be in Reno from Oct. 21 to the 24 and meeting the hubbie in Las Vegas to celebrate our anniversary. We arrive back home early on the 28 and off to the closing from there. Which means, that I'll have to be packed and ready to move before I leave to Nevada! Stressful, but I know that in the end it will be so worth it. Even if it's empty for a while, it'll be ours. 

Pics will be up soon!
