the ups and downs of home buying!!!

well - we didn't get the house. my mom said that that is the way it works. sometimes you put in a lot of offers and you still don't get the house. it takes awhile. well for someone like me who lacks patience it makes the situation difficult. especially since i got so stressed out about putting in the offer in the first place. oh well - there is another house like it that the realtor sent to us so we'll see. its disappointing but we know that God can provide.

anyway - another freezing cold week in southern pa. we can't seem to get a snow day if our lives depended on it. the stupid weather people will even say that we are getting snow and then we will get little or none. ugh!!! we could really use the rest found on a snow day. but once again we know that God can provide. :)

well - i hope that you all have a wonderful week. hey feel free to leave a comment. i do like responses - its like getting mail. :) (which if you would like to send would be great too. :))

Hey Mark and Jen, don't know if you saw my other comment, but I was glad to find your blog. Sorry you didn't get the house. I'm sure I will understand better in a few years when I'm going through the same process. I doesn't sound like that much fun. Well, keep sticking with it, and be glad that you don't live here in VA. You'd never get a snow day!

Keep pressing on, Mark and Jen. The perfect house will turn up eventually! I'll pray you find one soon!

Hey there friend! I'm sorry, i haven't checked blogs in quite a while! (i'm bad!!) i didn't know y'all were looking at houses! neat! - even though this one fell through. not to be discouraging, but it can be a longer process sometimes (not that we know personally, but through friends and family). but the Lord will lead you to the perfect one most definately!!! hope all is going well! surving teaching? miss you! talk with you again soon!
