Open House Post-Mortem

A quick note to update you on the open house last weekend.

After two weeks of scrubbing every inch of our house, shipping the kids off to spend days with their grandparents, and boxing up numerous items - both that we use and that we don't - we held our house open for 8 hours of our last weekend. And the results? Six groups came through - 3 on Saturday, and 3 on Sunday. This was feeling very discouraging until the last group on Sunday, who expressed very serious interest. That made it all feel worthwhile - it only takes one, right? They said they would be out of town for the week, so we're yet to be troubled that we haven't heard from them. But if there's no word by the middle of next week, we'll probably start biting our nails.

Please pray that God keeps control of this situation. Our specific prayer is that it sells fast, preferably from the Open House. But we are holding it open again in a few weeks, and willing to rent as well.
