Okay, it is now official! We have been approved for our mortgage and will be closing on December 1st. Yay! I'm going to see if I can add this picture!

Getting closer...

So, I got a call from the realtor, and it looks like the appraisal went through well. It was appraised for $230,000 (which is $18,000 more than we're paying for it!). Also, she called about them picking out a color for the roof, so that sounds good, too! Now we're just waiting for the mortgage to be approved.

Also, I got my bridesmaids' dress for Debbie's wedding. It's very pretty! And, I'm planning her bachlorette party, so that's cool.

So, things are really good!

More pics...






Here are more pictures from the wedding!

Charlene's wedding!






It was a blast! I had such a great time! We laughed, we cried, we danced! We screamed the lyrics to "Dancing Queen". Charlene looked beautiful and so did everyone and everything. I love weddings!

More house stuff!

So, we met with the mortgage guy last night and that's looking pretty good. We signed all the stuff and wrote out a check, and he's holding that until we get the radon test back and the sellers sign to fix stuff from the home inspection.

We made a little list of some stuff for them to fix (very small things that an electrician/plumber would need to do). So, we'll see what happens there!

House news!

Okay, so we had the home inspection on Monday, and it went well. There were no major issues. A couple of small safety things (outlets and wires), but nothing big! Also, we talked to the mortgage guy and he's working out a "Good Faith Estimate", and it's looking good so far. So, I'm feeling much less anxious now. We're still waiting for the radon info, and we're meeting with the loan guy on Thursday, so maybe we'll know more by next week.

Also, Charlene's wedding is the 4th! I can't wait for that! I'm going to bring my camera and put on a couple pics!
