We made an offer!

John and I made an offer on a house today! Exciting and scary. We've been house hunting about a month and have physically looked through about 15 houses. This house was on the market just a few days - hence a lot of showings in the last 3 days. We looked at the house the first time on Thursday and another showing arrived as we were leaving. The house has had about 7 showings in 3 days. We went for a second showing today. We submitted the offer and have to wait...the hard part. We gave them until 5pm Monday since it is a weekend. I'd rather not get into a bidding war but it seems to be a popular house. The house is a 2 story with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a 2-car attached garage, a gas fireplace, and a finished basement. It has most of our "like to haves" and a wonderful kitchen. I am trying not to get too attached to the house since anything can happen at this point. It's exciting to think about - and a bit scary (going into debt again for a large amount).
