House Shopping or Hunting?

The month of April so far has been pretty exciting. We started house shopping which is very interesting. I always assumed house shopping would be really fun seeing all sorts of different houses and picking one that pleases us. Instead I have changed my stance and now I call it house hunting. That is what it is looking through a bunch of outdated floor plans, seeing potential through ugly carpets and paints, finding the right house quickly and pulling the trigger. After seeing more then thirty houses already we have about three that have a possibility and one we really like. Here is where the hunting part comes in its been on the market one day and is bank owned. We are hoping to get a bid going by Monday and in hopes that we get the place. Crossing the fingers and now we wait... At least we will have good distractions this week, Brendan graduates with his MBA. Which is crazy how fast two years has come and gone. His parents will be coming to town and we are all planning on heading down to Zion to enjoy a nice weekend away. I am excited and hopefully being busy with all of that will help keep my nerves about house hunting at bay! Love Alyssa and Brendan
