Big Sigh of Relief

We have an offer... well 3 actually.

Our house has been showing like crazy. It officially appeared on the market Tues morning last week and we had at least one showing a day, sometimes two. Then on Sat our realtor had an open house. There wasn't very much traffic, but those that came by were serious buyers and were all very interested. At the end of that day we had one offer with the promise of three more the next day! We met with her Sunday evening and she showed us the 3 offers she had received on our home! Two were acceptable but not great, the third was our asking price with no extra demands. Of course that's the one we chose and accepted. As long as all goes well with inspections and financing for the buyers, the closing is scheduled for July 14 - over 2 weeks after the close on our new home.

All the waiting to finally do this was worth it, God certainly knows what He's doing. Things are working out amazingly well. Thank you everyone for your prayers, we couldn't have done so well without them.

"guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long." Psalm 25:5

Yahoo - that's great! Hopefully nothing will fall through and this will be a smooth process (crossing fingers).

Good job! Can't wait for the first Shumate function at the new place!
