A Hunting We Will Go!

Today will be day 3 of our house hunting adventure and we're getting so close to finding our new home!

Alec created an awesome binder with all of the listings so we could make notes after viewing each house. As soon as we would leave a house, I'd jump in the car and quickly jot down the pros and cons and any other remarks we or our realtor made about the property.

We began on Saturday and was completely dismayed when not 1 of the 8 houses we visited was even near our dream home! We almost threw in the towel and took our house off the market! After crying (Jenny), cussing (Jenny) and a whole lot of frustration (Alec and Jenny), we separately sorted through our list and checked for any listings we may have missed previously. We then reconvened and realized we only picked 2 of the same houses out of a list of 100! So we argued our cases for each house and came up with a new list.

Sunday proved much more successful! We actually found several to include in our Top 3! So far we have 2 that we both love and we can actually see ourselves in. One is a 4-bedroom 2-story home with a huge back yard and a gorgeous kitchen. The other is a 3-bedroom 1-story that has been completely remodeled -new carpet & tile, updated kitchen and baths. We may have to flip a coin!

This evening we are checking out 4 houses in Tulsa. We're hoping to find one that will blow our 2 favorites out of the water! I really think we're close to finding our home sweet home!
