Hopeful

Well things are going well. We accepted our buyers second bid and now are waiting on their financing. The banker said shouldn't be a problem so that is good. We should know by Monday or Tuesday what is going on. I can't imagine how people feel who's houses have been on the market for several months. Our officially has been on the market not quite a month. It has been a very long month. We are praying hard that all will go well with selling this one and buying the new one. I look forward to setting up a new home. Deciding about paint and everything else. And of course, the yard to work in this spring.

It seems that spring is almost here. It is beautiful out here. I love it. The kids are getting antsy, so I am very glad that there is the weekend coming up now. Hope everyone has a great couple of days!

Many Changes...all for the better!

This has been a long month. We found a house we want to buy, got approved for financing, put an offer in on said house (which was accepted contingent on our house getting sold) and put our house on the market all within the space of about 6 weeks. Whew! Now we have been patiently waiting for someone to decide to buy ours. Of course we have to keep it spotless in case anyone wants to come see it. Do you know how hard it is to keep a house clean when you have kids and grandkids? Let's just say it has been interesting. We have already boxed up and moved to storage ( at James' brother's house) a huge trailer load. That way it is our of the way. Our realtor called it "decluttering". I laughed at her and said "Oh you mean get rid of a bunch of junk so people can actually see the rooms!!" It does look nice now. James and I did a bunch of fixing and painting and finish work. It is nice to be in a house that is clean and tidy and fresh. We finally got an offer today, which we counter- offered. I just hope it all works out for us. I am ready to move forward with life. I've lived in our house for 19 years in June. That is a long time to be in one house. Well I'm off to lunch and hopefully will hear from our realtor this afternoon. Woo Hoo!!!

Well Hello again!!

Well once again it has been months since I last posted. My kids moved back to Montana and the Holidays came and went. They were more fun than usual since it was the first one with the grandkids. My brother and sister in law found a home and we moved them into it in January. I know they are very happy to be in their own home.

My daughter and her family are building a home so they are staying with my mom while they await the big day. They are hoping it will be sometime April. It is going to be a beautiful home. Tawny and Evan are having a fun making decisions about flooring, fixtures and paint among other things.

Levi found a good job and is getting settled. He is doing well and I am really enjoying having him home.

As for James, Jeremiah, Brendon and I, we are in the process of selling our house and buying a new one. The one we are in the process of getting is only a few blocks from Tawny and Evans new home. Pray for us that all goes well. Getting ours sold is the only thing holding us up right now. We need someone to buy our house. Anyone moving to Montana soon??? lol

Well that is about all that is going on now. See you in 6 months!!! Maybe sooner if I get on the ball!!!
