Finally...

So I've finally gotten around to making a blog.  I'm hoping to be able to keep up with it, so we'll see how it goes.  

So we got a call back from the woman, Charlotte, about the house we looked at last saturday.  It's a 5 bdrm 2 bath house that's 2,400 sq ft.  It's not the best house in the world, it's older and the floor on the upstairs level squeak a lot when you walk around and there's no dishwasher.  But it has a really nice fenced in back yard and it was really big and has a fireplace.  I'm not really to sure about what's going on with it though, she called Ron and told him that the house wasn't ready...so I'm not quite sure if it's a yes or a no.  

We're going tonight to look at this amazing house in Orem, it's so nice that it's scary...if we actually got it I would be scared that the girls would mess it up.  It's so nice I don't know if I'd feel at home in it.  

*** Description of the home and yard *** 

Gently used 4,037 square foot SECLUDED home in Orem on 1/3 acre with separate in-law apartment. 

There are a total of 7 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 laundry rooms and much more. 

The home is currently set up with a completely separate 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment, leaving 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main home or it can be easily used as a 7 bedroom home. 

Excellent south Orem location, close to everything, but out of the way of the hustle & bustle.

Again, if you’re the ideal renter, nearing the time to buy a home we would like to show you the home and get to know you. 

That's the discription of the house from craigslist and the link has a bunch of pictures of it.  I'm just keeping my fingers crossed and trying to stay positive and keep telling myself that eventually we'll find the perfect place...
