Say hello to my little friend!

So as of last month... our house has been on the market for over a year. We have had lots of lookers, a couple of bites, but no offers. I posted on facebook that I was cleaning my house for the millionth showing and that I hoped it sold soon. People started telling me that I needed to bury a St Joseph in my yard.

Well, we're Baptist, so I didnt even know what a St Joseph was or why he would want to be buried in my yard. After doing a little research with my catholic family I found out the scoop.

Apparently burying a St Joseph figurine in your yard will help to sell your house faster. People swear by it, my own family even. Now, why they are waiting a whole year to tell me this little secret... I have no idea! But I went out and purchased my very own St Joseph today. He is being buried promptly after work. People that viewed our house yesterday seem really interested, so who knows, maybe it will work! I have faith!

Please say a prayer our house sells!

I will keep yall posted on St Joseph!
