We got it!

Well after months of house searching, we finally got one! It truly was God leading us to it with how we found it. We actually went into the bank to talk about getting a loan for another house (Pat really liked it, I was ok with it) and the lender told us about a house that they just foreclosed on. He told us to take the keys and check it out. Pat and I didn't have anything else to do so we thought it wasn't going to hurt anything to check it out, so we did. As soon as we walked through it we both knew we loved it. A few days later we took our parents up and they checked it out and everyone agreed it would be a good purchase.
Fast-forward a few days and we find out someone else is interested in the house as well and have put in an offer. This equals us (ok maybe just me) freaking out a little because we really wanted to house. So we put in an offer and just had to wait. Finally we got an email that said we got the house! So excited!
We still have to do inspections and all that but I am hoping to get in soon. We decided to start packing up some of the stuff we don't use very often and already have quite a bit packed up. I am also starting to price some stuff for a garage sale because honestly you never know who may want some of this stuff and it won't cost me anything.
Now our next step is to find some furniture because we are really spoiled here and only have a couch and tv stand! I will post pictures soon!

P90 Ouch!

For a while now I have realized that I am not in the best shape ever and have constantly said I should do something about it but with all the other things going on in my life, I have always found a way to avoid it. Like our pastor said once "I sometimes get the urge to run, but I just sit down until that passes." Well no more. Pat and I have both decided that we need to get back on track. When Pat and I first met we were both in pretty good shape and he was one of those crazy people that enjoys running ( I really don't understand those people.) Anyways on Monday Pat went to our friends Chad's house and borrowed his P90X videos. If you are not familiar with P90X it is a pretty extreme workout. I feel that you need to be in shape to start it. We are now on our 3rd day and I think it helps that we are doing it together. This morning he didn't want to do it but I convinced him that we need to and I am sure there will be a day that I refuse to do it but he will sway me otherwise. Maybe this will at least tone us up a little. I know we will probably not make it back to our pre-college weight but we can always chip away some pounds!
