Guess who just found the cutest little 5 acre farm last week (with a big red barn and everything!) and put an offer in on it and had it accepted today?
WE DID!!!!! ![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif) ![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif) ![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif)
Four is and always has been my lucky number, and this place is the #4 attempt at buying a house since last March. I'm just sayin'.... ;)
Closing if all goes as planned will be November 30th.

Oh my goodness, Amy, I just want that barn! That is amazingly big and red and beautiful and just about perfect. And the house in the front does not look big at all til I saw the back of it. That's what mine looks like when we added on upstairs but a little longer. I love that whole place. Can I come live with y'all? I am so happy for you. Good things DO come to those that wait. Ang wait. And wait some more. Can't wait to hear more good news now. And more pictures, please!

Congratulations.... It looks like paradise. My husband and I are going through the "farm shopping" phase ourselves right now. I know you must be so excited. What state are you in? We are looking in Idaho.
