So after 6 weeks of searching we finally have got a house. We are SOOO blessed!!! Thanks to all of you that have prayed for us and thought about us this last little while, your prayers and thoughts have worked.
There is a fabulous family here in our ward, Brad and Caylee Low, that were going to let us house sit for them for the summer. We were to move into their house on April 30th, which was going to be cutting it close since we had to turn over this house on May 1st. We were very grateful to the Low's and were going to just have to make due. However, we found a cute little house in Martensville, put in an offer and actually won the bid (for anyone that doesn't know all the houses in Saskatoon are having bidding wars and most are going for anywhere from $20- $60 thousand dollars over the asking price which is high as well). Not only did we get the house but our possession date is April 27th!!!!!! WOOHOOOOOO!!!! :) We are thrilled.
The inside of the house is Great and all we need to do is paint a little bit, and we need to landscape the backyard. Other than these things the house is PERFECT!!!! It has a HUGE yard, I can finally have a big garden, it backs a park that has a great playground, spray park, and a sledding hill in the winter. But the best thing about this house is that we got it and paid in the low part of what we had budgeted, so we will have a house and not be paying much more than what we sold our house for. I am SOOOOOOO happy right now, I seriously feel like this is SUCH an answer to prayers.
If you are ever in the neighbourhood just give us a call and we will be happy to show you around.
