Well, gals...closing didn't happen last week. At the last possible moment, the county decided there were again changes they wanted to make in the plat map. We were really bummed out.
BUT!
The seller (the sweet wonderful man that he is) has decided he's through waiting on the county and is REALLY frustrated that its taking this long (when they keep telling him its just going to be one more day...one more day...) so he decided last Friday that we should just move in EARLY!
Of course we have to sign an early move in agreement and all that legal mumbo jumbo. I'm really excited to do this! We've already been up there since Nov 30th doing work on the place (which he's stopped in to check on and we've had such lovely conversations with him) but now we can move furniture in and get appliances and eventually stay over night and AHHHH! I am really hoping the actual closing isn't delayed too much longer because it would be nice to say its officially ours...but gosh I'm just feeling all warm and fuzzy that the seller is trusting us to move in EARLY.
If you go to my farm blog (first one listed in my signature) and read the last couple weeks of posts, you can see lots of pictures of what we've done to the place...more to come!

That is so wonderful! You got lucky with having such a great seller. I have been following along on your blog and I love the choices in colors and floors that you have made!
My husband was commenting last night how much this was like the first house we bought eleven years ago when we were first married. Closing got delayed and the seller let us move in early and have our wedding gift opening/party and everything right at the house before the house was even ours! She actually ended up building a house right next to the house she sold us and was our neighbor until she passed away. I love small town folk. :)
