We have a house!!

This last week has been a busy one. It wasn't a very "productive-get-a-lot-of-things-done" week. It was a very "sit-in-front-of-the-computer-finding-houses-to-look-at-and-go-see" week. We have literally looked at hundreds of house on line and then visited lots. The kids were so bored of looking and I had lots of people help us out in watching the kids. Thanks everyone! We found a house on Tuesday that we liked and made an offer. On Thursday, after back and forth counter offers, we were about to send the last addendum to our offer and the people accepted another offer. I was very sad! Thursday afternoon became a nap day for me. I was mentally exhausted! Well, after looking some more on Friday and Saturday, Saturday night the house was back on the market and we made an offer again. Sunday night, it became official: We are under contract for our new house!! YIPPEE!! It is still in Roy and the address is 3653 W 4925 S. It has 5 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. It has 3268 sq ft. so it is a little over 1000 sq. ft. bigger than the house we have now. The kids and Chris were way excited. Maggie did a little happy dance for us. Last night, I think I was a bit in shock and overwhelmed because I didn't show much excitement. This morning it has started to set in. I am excited!!
