Purchase Agreement Signed

We've signed and sent back the Purchase Agreement to sell our house in MN! I won't disclose the selling price here, but I will say that it was more than what we originally listed the house for. Praise God!

A little background: we put our house on the market sometime in April. We had several showings right away and over the next few weeks. Then things died down quite a bit; right around the time that we moved to Bowling Green, KY. We had a few showings here and there, but not much was going on.

Then, between this Monday and Tuesday, we received THREE offers on our home! All were above our current asking price! As I said above, the offer we accepted was higher than our original listing price. So, you can imagine our excitement!

Now, the buyers have a few weeks to have the house appraised and some title work needs to be done. Our closing date is scheduled for September 12th. We want to go back to MN for the closing and to supervise the packing of our household goods (my company pays to have a moving company pack us up and move our stuff), so we need to see if it will work to do this. It's hard to believe that in 5 weeks our house will be sold and all of our worldly possessions moved. Crazy!

Well, clearly God has been good to us through this process and time of transition in our lives. He has been faithful to see us through this tough time of adjustment and we trust Him to be faithful to lead us forward from here.

1 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! 2 Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing!

3 Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name!

5 For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.

Psalm 100: 1-5, ESV
