I don't want to jinx it, but...

. . . Micah and I are signing a contract on a house today!

Holy cow, right?

We found one that we just absolutely LOVED in a neighborhood that we just absolutely LOVED for a great price. It's a new construction, and the houses in that neighborhood go fairly quickly, so we figured we needed to move quickly. Plus, I know interest rates are low right now and are expected to rise. Our lease on the house we're renting isn't actually up until September, but we've extended closing for 60 days, so we'll only be double paying for two months or so.

I'll post more pictures later, but for now, here's one of the outside. The stone and brick actually look much prettier in person. :)
