Finally!!

We had another meeting about our house Tuesday night. We met our supervisor who is super excited and motivated about the whole project. He's done habitat for humanity and LOVED it!! He's been in construction for 20 yrs and loves things to go fast (Which really appealed to us)! We got a date to close our loan (Sept. 3rd) and he's hoping he can get our permits in about 2-3 weeks. As soon as we get the permits we can get going on our house! So I've been apartment hunting the past couple days and have found a few. We toured one yesterday and like it. It's location is perfect as far as Greg's work and the property is concerned, it's right in the middle. It was a bit small and the price was a tad high but it will get the job done for the next year. It's a 2 bed 1 bath that's ground floor and the slider opens up right to the "park" area. Which is more like about 1/2 an acre of grass with wooden play area (the ones with the slide and swings). But it's all fenced up so as long as i sit out there with them the boys are free to run till they pass out! No laundry in the unit but the laundry in the facility is free! They said they would be willing to hold it for us and the holding fee didn't seem to bad. I've got a couple more i would like to look into though so we'll see. I've started packing so that when we do find one we can move ASAP. We have to give 30 days notice here so hopefully we'll find one soon.
That's all for now but I'll keep ya posted!

Good luck! Apartment/ house hunting can be fun, but the moving part is a lot of work! Our family is building a house right now; it actually might be done! (We haven't checked on it since a couple of weeks ago.) We should close on it Sept. 30 and move in the first weekend in October. Exciting stuff! I hope all goes smoothly for you!
