Learning to wait.

About a year ago, Joseph and I had to make a decision about where we were going to live.  We (at the time) felt that our choices were either to continue to live in the apartment or buy a house!  Well, naturally we wanted to buy a house! After much disappoint we found that this was not what God wanted for us at the time. So, we ended up moving in with the in-laws! It has been a wonderful 10 plus months but Joseph and I felt that it was time for us to see if we could find a place of our own.  We emailed back and forth with our mortgage agent and much to our happy surprise I HAD A CREDIT SCORE!
So, all that being said - We are buying a house! We looked at about 16 houses in Trussville and narrowed it down to three.  Then picked "the one"! We closed today on our house and will officially get the keys on Sunday.  I am so thankful over and over that we were patient and waited, and did the non traditional thing but it is leading to us being much happier! We prayed for months that God would make it known to us when the timing was right and He did...but it was in HIS timing not the timing that we wanted to control!
I was hoping to post the link but it is already taken off the website!  I will post pictures once we "actually get it"!
