House Hunting Day 2

Yesterday we managed to see a house that we just fell in love with! The house had everything on our list. To tell you the truth if I knew that we were going to live here longer then four years I would have bought it! We didnt want to just jump on it with out seeing any other houses though so we scheduled two other house viewing for today.

When we went house hunting today we felt like the house we saw yesterday just got better and better! Everything we saw today just seemed scary....like steep steps that we could see our small children tripping and falling down. EKK. Then the second house was a church conversion and although it had large space it was so far away from where we really wanted to be. The roads were single lane and we did not feel good about the drive to and from the base as it is, let alone days in the winter with rain and snow in the dark.

So we called to confirm with the realitor that we FOR SURE wanted the house that we saw yesterday. We found out that the landlord has several people interested in the house and basically is allowing people to come see the house all week and then make a decision Monday who gets the house. I wanted to scream, cry, throw a fit, and all else related to a toddler not getting their way. I mean we still have a chance to get the house but I feel so discouraged. I hate when I am competing against other people and yet I cant even do anything about it to make it happen. I have to rely fully on God to do this for us. Which is hard, because trusting that we get what we want over what we need is hard. I do believe God will provide a good place for us but this house is really what we want! So if your a prayer, pray for us to get this place, PLEASE!!!!!!

I did get a chance to enjoy some pretty scenery along the way though.  Apparently I love phone booths so enjoy some of the ones I managed to take from the car as we drove by ;)
