More House Stuff

So, a lot has happened in the past week. We accepted the offer we received and are closing on May 1st. I flew out to Waterloo on Tuesday night and Dave and I have been looking at houses for the bast 3 days. We put an offer on a house yesterday afternoon and it was accepted this morning. We are closing on the new house on May 4th. It's a little surreal how well things are working out. I totally believe things happen for a reason, so maybe this move was meant to be. I'm trying really hard not to resist, but it's not easy.

The new house is fantastic and we are really excited. It's a little bit further away from Dave's work than what we had planned and it is definitely country living, but we will be about 20 minutes away from a larger city (even larger than Waterloo and Cedar Falls put together) where we can do our shopping and eat at chain restaurants. The kids will go to a Lutheran school that has excellent test scores. The house is on a little over 1/2 an acre and on a cul-de-sac and backs up to a golf course, so there will be plenty of room to play. We are heading over there in a little while and then Dave is taking me to the airport, so I will post some pictures tomorrow.
