A New Possibility

Today was an interesting day.  We had plans to go see about 10 houses this afternoon (without the kids), and it didn't happen because our realtor was sick.  BUT, Robert and I decided to go ahead and check out the outsides of the houses and the neighborhoods to just make sure that it would be worth looking tomorrow when we go (because we will have the kids with us tomorrow).  We ended up narrowing our choices down to two, and one of them we found out is under contract (and they are about to close).  That was the best neighborhood out of all of them so we were a bit sad :(.  We also saw another house that we are very interested in.  I can't wait until we go see the inside in person tomorrow, but I can already tell it's a great house.  The house was built in 1939, partially updated, 2030 square feet, large lot (for the area), in a nice neighborhood, large backyard, 2 living areas, an upstairs master suite with little office area, etc.  It's a little higher than what we initially were going to look at.  But we decided that it's worth it to pay a little more and have a house that we LOVE in a good neighborhood than to pay less and have a house that isn't in a good neighborhood, etc.  Here are some pictures:
