My husband and I are currently saving up to buy ourselves a home. We have piggy banks and jars full of coins and bills. We both agree that every penny counts. Fortunately for us, we have saved enough money to obtain a larger mortgage this year. We can finally purchase our dream house!

Yesterday, we went on open houses and viewed several houses. My husband and I fell in love with one particular house. It was a beautiful colonial type house but with a contemporary interior design. It has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has a large family area and a kitchen, ornate with fabulous glass tile backsplash, which opens to a circular dining room. The house has a huge backyard with a stone patio. The garage can house two cars and a couple of motorbikes or bicycles. It is perfect for me and my husband as well as for the future kids we will be having.

After we got home, we talked about the house. We have to make a decision immediately as to purchase it or not. A few other people are interested in the house too. If we dawdle with our verdict, we might be beaten to it.
