House Dreams

We have been looking for a house for a while now. We went to talk to the lender and got all excited about a new house. We can't afford much (since we don't want to be house poor) but having our own place is so important. We feel like renting is a waste of money. Paying for something that will never be yours is silly for us, since we plan on living here for a long time. :) Anyway, we have got the lender and realtor. We spent all last Friday looking at a whole bunch of houses and found the one that we liked. We tried out the ward and totally loved it! Everyone was super nice. So we were going to offer on the house this week. We also wanted to show our parents to see what they thought. Well, we made the appointment with the realtor and......the house was made an offer and they told us they were going to take it! I was so sad. I really liked that house. Josh said something super spiritual and insightful like "well, we know that's not where the lord wanted us." It's true but I was still sad. So, the hunt continues. There are a million houses for sale right now so I am not too worried. :) We are going to look in Magna now (it's super close to where Josh works.....). Wish us luck!
