Home!

After the disappointment of the weekend, we decided we'd look around the area some more, and look at the other houses we had liked, and other options. We're praying hard that we'll find the right home soon!

We just walked past the agents on Playne Street - picking up brochures, and walked into Dawes First National. The agent gave us brochures of some houses, and then mentioned that a new home had come up for sale in the same neighbourhood of the other two houses we had put offers in on!

We drove up to the new house and absolutely loved it!

It's smaller than the other homes, but it has an absolutely gorgeous Australian bush garden out back, and we fell in love with it the moment we saw it.

So much so that the negotiations were short and sharp. To cut a long story short, we put in an offer on the house today, and just found out that the offer had been accepted!

We bought a house today! Can't wait to get it set up and have everyone visit!

The only bummer was that we would have to wait an extra month for the settlement - the lady selling the house needs to find alternate accommodation - but it means we have a little more time to sort out the finances!
