We recieved the results from the water test back on Saturday and let the bank know on Monday that we were happy with the results and would be closing on Friday. Well the bank cannot get the house appraised until Thursday so our closing will be pushed back now. Also, I found out that I need to get homeowners insurance prior to close and pay for the first year. This took me by surprise since I am escrowing the insurance and since no one told me I needed to get the insurance I thought the bank had their own carrier or something. Well that will not hold us up as our agents are great and I got them working on that yesterday afternoon and we should have something by the end of the week.
Ben is feeling the stress of this next big step and I think the road block just added to that stress. I am a little disapointed but if this is what is going to go wrong than so be it. A delay in taking possession by a few days is ok. We were not going to be moving in this weekend or working on the house, so in the big scheme of things it is no big deal... and could be a blessing, it is a few days less interest on the loan. Trying to see the brighter side.
My inlaws are helping us with the downpayment and some of the renovation costs and they will be home this weekend so it will be nice for them to see the house again. I may try and take a few more before pics to add to the slideshow.
Pray that everything goes smoothly from here on out.

there you go, loking at the good side of it. You are getting a house, and if you have to work a little harder, or wait a little longer, then it will make it so much more worth it when it is finally yours and the way you want it.
Love ya hon,
