Where We Stand

We have news!

After taking paper after paper to the mortgage company, making the ladies at the bank hate me because I always need something from them and getting the worst fever blisters ever from all the stress we have a tentative closing date.
 
Last week Jacob went back to work and started football practice full time.  This week I am back at work.  In less than a month we should be closing.  I am so excited y'all. 
Hopefully it will not be long before this baby is ours.  We put our offer in on our house over 2 months ago.  At that time we were supposedly pre-approved.  So much has happened since then.  I have been to the mortgage company a couple of times EVERY week.  It has been a long, drawn out, frustrating process but tentatively it will be paying off on September 9th.  If everything goes as planned we will be moving in on September 19th.  Which is right smack dab in the middle of football season but we will make it through!
 

These people are going to be homeowners soon! 
My real wish was the we would be able to move in Labor Day weekend.  It was just going to work out best.  Jacob's football game that week is on Thursday night.  We were both already planning on taking the day off that Friday (of course when this idea was first even discussed we were sure that we would be in the house long before Labor Day!) and we are both off on Monday.  We could run to the courthouse and get hitched on Friday morning and still have 3 nice long days to settle in to our new married, home owning life.  (I won't lie I am still kind of holding out hope for that.)
Put on your rally caps guys we need a miracle.
(Side note: the rally hat in this picture totally worked.  The braves came back in the 9th from being down like  5-2)
