There is really no other way to describe it. Ethan and I left town last Friday with no showings on the house. It had been on the market about a week, but no traffic yet. By the time we landed in Houston on Sunday, we had 6 showings and one full price offer. Full price is the kicker. Who goes in and offers full price from the start? With a contract in hand for a buyer, we called our agent in Nashville and submitted an offer on a house that we had found. Let me say that again, we found a house in one weekend. Just how does that work? Only by the hand of God.
Tonight I sit here. Relieved that this part is over. Contracts are signed and we enter into the pending stage. When Ethan told me the sellers in Nashville had accepted our offer, he commented on my lack of enthusiasm. Truthfully, I guess I didn’t know how to react. I was glad we got the house we both liked, but I guess it was a lot of reality hitting too. We are scheduled to close on both houses by Aug. 2 and probably move the first week of August. Does anyone else feel this is coming quick??
Yes, it is quick. Remember, God knows what is best for us and our timing. If this process had been drawn out, it would have been much harder for you to go. Trust me…I know!!!! 🙂 God takes care of our needs in the most amazing and unsuspecting ways. I am thrilled for you that one of the hardest parts of relocating is done and you can move forward. What did you decide about Berry’s Chapel? Can’t wait to get all the details…I am jealous. Call me!!
All in God’s timing kids, all in God’s timing. I think you should see that as a great sign that God has His hands in your plans and is going to do some MEGA cool things through you guys in Nashville. That should be exciting! I can’t wait to come visit… 🙂 Will you have pictures of the new house sometime soon?
OH, I’m so sad….but excited for you! It’s all happening so fast…..that means we only have a couple of more times to eat luch together after church!!
VERY fast!!! WOW, I still can’t believe you’re moving! Your attitude about going and following your husband is an attitude to be admired. I know God will bless you for trusting Him on this very big decision. Ya’ll will be missed!!
Wow, when things are in God’s plan I believe it moves quickly. A quote I found says, “things in life should be simple rather than complex.” Congratulations and all the best to you.

Congrats on a quick sale & an easy find. I hope everything continues to go smoothly.
I went on vacation for a week and this is still the most current blog. Does this mean you are still moving?
