House Hunting

Travis and I made a trip to Del Rio this weekend to start looking for houses.  We looked at about 8 different houses before we found one that we really liked.  We told our realtor to make an offer on it for us, but when she called, the owners had already accepted another offer....about two hours before we made ours.  It was a huge disappointment, but we are planning on going back in a few weeks to look for houses again.  We found a couple of others that we didn't have time to see on this trip, and we are hoping a few more will pop up on the market by the time we head back again.

Then, Travis and I came back to Austin to keep working on getting my house ready to sell.  A couple of weekends ago, we spent the entire day Sunday cleaning, painting, and moving furniture around.   Today, Travis and I got a bed for the downstairs room, a new set of drawers (some assembly required), and a new comforter for the bed.  Travis also moved some bookshelves for me and fixed some crooked shelves.  Everything is starting to look amazing!  All I have to do now is clean the carpets and vacuum/dust everything else and then it will be ready to put on the market.

So, keep us in your thoughts and prayers while we are looking for a house and trying to sell my townhouse!
