A quick update on the house hunting- we were in a negotiation on a house in Nevada all last week and finally decided on Friday that we couldn't accept the terms the seller wanted and chose to walk away. It was sad because we really loved the house. The seller is renting to another family right now and even though he's not bound to the full six month lease he has with them, he doesn't want to break it early, which would mean we wouldn't get the house until the end of June and he wasn't willing to compensate for that wait by bringing the price down further. Oh well, I suppose we will find something. We looked at about every house in Nevada that was our price range and built after 1940, so we're going to try looking at some places in Ames. Who knows, maybe the market will open up a little bit more in the next couple of weeks and we'll have many more choices, we'll see....... :)
