So, Geoff found this house (in the previous post) and was like, "Dude, we gots to buy this house" and I saw it and I was like, "no." But then I went and looked and it was okay. Except there are a lot of things that need to be done. But we are handy so maybe it will work out.
Anyway, Geoff went and looked at it Tuesday and then we thought about it and then they dropped the price $30k and then we were like, "Okay, let's do this." and we offered even less and they accepted. Except we have to close by the end of the month. Eek! And they want more earnest money, which is kind of weird to me, because that is like nothing.
We tried to take more people to it tonight but it was locked up tight. But, they got the main idea. It is giant. And it decent shape at the bones but needs a lot of work. But not for Halloween. We could totally have a Halloween party in this house without doing anything.
That is the story. New house. We are crazy and are signing ourselves up for a ton of work. I hope it works out for us. Good thing Geoff and I love each other because it is going to be a tough year.
It is like I can't just take time off. I must always have some crazy project. Wish us luck.

Maybe you should take sometime to work on projects at the new house! I know you hate to take time off to work on stuff, but sometimes it is totally worth it. And you need to use days!
Congratulations on the GIANT new house.
Year?!! baw haa HAA
Good luck. I like to tear things down. Call me when you want a wall removed. I swing a mean sledge hammer. And Bernie is great pulling out sunflowers if you have any..
Can't wait to see the giant house.
The house is GIANT. I bet my house and Jenni's house could both fit into your new house.
Since you have 4 kitchens (3 in new house, 1 in old house) will you be having us over more often for fancy dinner parties? The new house already has dishes.
Nice house. It looks big!! The outside looks just like to house behind us. Good luck & congrats!!
Wow! It definitely has cool potential & all that space will be awesome. Like April said, good luck & congrats!
p.s. Ben says "GOod Luck" & remember he still owes you help for the sheetrock in our basement.
That's cool! Where is it? Sounds like you got a good deal. Extra room will be nice. We are not handy and it takes us forever to get any home projects done. I want to buy the Assembly of god church that is for sale on canyon road in Provo, and convert it into a house. But we are not handy and to hire out for a job like that would be too much money for us. Besides I really like our house. I'm excited to see your new house.
