Finally Something To Update:

Previously on our house updates, we switched to a bank from a mortgage broker. This was done about a month ago. Yesterday, our stuff was accepted from final underwriting, and we signed to close! Just a reminder, last time we signed to close, the lenders got bought out and nothing happened. This time, it will go through because we're pretty sure Wells Fargo won't be bought out by Friday. So basically, we should be homeowners on Friday and can finally start the demolition!

I had forgotten how much stuff we had on our list of things to do when we close. We use to go to Lowes and Home Depot a few times a week and had everything planned. We basically put everything off for a couple months because the end wasn't in our sight. NOW it is! Now we have to re-find carpet and paint, and get everything in order. We'll be able to start working on it this weekend! :) YAY! And hopefully everything will be in place for me to decorate for Christmas! (I can't wait to put lights on the columns, have our Christmas tree in the front window, hang stockings on the fireplace! ahh!)
