C'mon July 7th!!

As many of you know on my birthday we got the best news, the house we put an offer on accepted our offer so we went under contract! It is a perfect starter home and we could not be any happier about the purchase we are making. Kendall being a Realtor used his "in" to get us even an offer in, for the whole week before another individual was putting in offers and counter offers. Fortunately things worked out that we got our offer in, it was apparently better and it helped that Kendall knows the ins and outs of house contracts and what sellers want. The house has 3 bedrooms, and one room they call a "bonus" room which could be considered a small room since it has a window and closet, but either way it will be the playroom since it is right off the living room and the kids will be able to be close to us.
This is the back of the house, you can see a neat patio with a greenhouse style roof over it. Will be nice to have for entertaining friends and family outside!
This is the master bedroom, the closet is off to the right were you cannot see in this picture.
This is the playroom, i am standing in the closet to take the picture so it is hard to really see it, but i am coming up with different ideas on how i would like to paint it for them. :)
This is the front yard, you can see Aidan peeking his head out the screen door, he seemed to get in over half of the pictures i took. The front yard has a patio, nice big shade trees and a little fence also, but it isn't completely around since the driveway goes right up to the house.
This is the front of the house, the big window in the middle the kids LOVE, it is low enough that they can stand in front of it and look out, i am sure they will enjoy peering out it like they do the screen door here!
Here is the living room, again Aidan is admiring himself in the mirrors on the wall, the door on the right side is into the children's playroom, and then on the left by Aidan is the master bedroom and the bathroom next to that.
The kitchen is open into the living room, and has a new stove (with a flap top!!), the washer dryer however they current owners are taking with them but we knew that coming in. We will just have to find some second hand ones until we can afford new ones. Their isn't a huge amount of cupboards, but there is two pantries which is awesome! The third bedroom is to the right off the kitchen, it will be nice to have a space for people to come visit and also a little office space.
This is the third bedroom, it will be the kids room, it is bigger than the one they have now so it will be nice, the closet is larger too. Also to the right there is an odd corner with shelves that we can put some of their things on too, we will just have to repaint for sure, i don't think purple walls is suitable for a boy and girl room. Again, notice Aidan?
There is only one bathroom but it is long and narrow, the medicine cabinet is ENORMOUS in itself. There is a tub with shower, and then the toilet of course is in the back around the corner.
One last picture of the backyard from the patio, Kendall wrote into the contract that they include the kennel (for my dog Smores!) and i guess the owners didn't want to but decided sure why not! There is 3 sheds, two blue that match the house and one brown, the brown one we aren't sure if we are going to keep we will see. The yard is fenced in and Kendall took a walk to the back and said he even saw a tire swing, way cool!

So that is it, i cannot wait till closing on July 7th, it will take forever to get there but that is ok! We are moving out of where we currently are at the end of May into a temporary rental owned by Kendall's boss, she is really nice to let us stay there for about 2 months in total. It will save us money in the long run to go toward our morgage payments. The inspections and appraisal of the house was today and everything looked OK. Relief that we are getting a move in ready house that has been kept up nicely! Hopefully the rest of the contract time will go smoothly and nothing will show up to take our house away! I Love it! We are so very fortunate to have the support to be able to even get it!
