Yes...you are reading that correctly....we found a house!! After searching for forever (literally), Will and I found a house that we both like...yeah!! It is in a great neighborhood with a great elementary school just blocks away. William and I can walk to school!
I went to see the house last Thursday (the 18th...catching up on my postings) and Will went to check it out that afternoon. Before I arrived two people had seen the house and after Will left four more people went to see it. We were the first contract...they have four more behind us! We were very lucky!!!
Right now we are in the "option" period but we are hopeful that everything will go smoothly with the inspection on Tuesday. The house was built in 1972 and the decor reflects that era. The whole house needs work...I mean EVERYTHING...from the roof to the floors. It will be a big project but will be worthwhile in the end. We have a great builder to help us out!
Keep your fingers crossed that we don't find any major problems and can close on this house ASAP.

How exciting! Can't wait to hear more about it and see photos. We had a REAL fixer upper too (read tear down, only we didn't) in VA and boy, was it a project. You'll have a great time making it your own. Hope to see you guys soon. Either here or there. Come on down anytime!
