Sold!
Yup, that’s right, folks. We are the proud owners of a…sold house : ) We signed the Offer to Purchase agreement 1/2 an hour ago and we are good to go. Our basement of our new house is scheduled to be started October 9 and we have to be out of here November 17. So that means a few months back at mom and dad’s. I’m very excited and very relieved that it’s over. No more stressing about a clean house…although I wasn’t actually terribly stressed about that, it was kind of nice to have a perfectly clean house all the time. I think we’ll try and keep the “up-for-sale-must-keep-it-spotless” mentality a little longer! Maybe I won’t tell the girls and keep harassing them about keeping it clean for showings (they already know what that is, hee, hee).
So now I’m happy about the upcoming journey, but really, really sad about knowing the date I have to move from my cute house and lovely, wonderful, amazing, awesome, fabulous neighbors (did I get enough compliments in there to appease you, girls?) At least we’ll only be one street over when we move into our new house. Just a short walk away to borrow garlic presses and propane (clarification, that would be US doing the borrowing from them…they are probably secretly happy that we’ll be gone and they can get some normal neighbors. Unless of course they are crazier than us, and I mean crazy in the best possible way).
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Congratulations!! I can’t imagine having to move in with either set of parents (I seriously think I’d go insane), but it sounds like you’ve dealt with that before. Good luck!!

uh…you forgot spectacular and incredible…AND gorgeous
wow — you know, even though you’ll only be one street over, it’s still going to feel very weird.
and hey, I may still come knocking on your door for a tomato or icing sugar…
but CONGRATS!! (wish you had accepted the one with the longer possession date)

Congratulations! I as read this, it is bringing tears to my eyes. Even though I knew last night. Don’t get me wrong, I am very excited that you sold your house and are going to be building a new one, but sad for my own selfish sake! You, Jer and your beautiful little girls have become like family to us. You truely are our best of friends. There are people that you meet and you just click, and that was us! You were right the other night when you said “we had you at hello”! Jordan asks me if we are ever going to see you again when you move, and I tell her of course! When Jaxxon see’s you outside he asks if we are having supper with you guys tonight and when I say not tonight he just says, “ah..” You can borrow my garlic press anytime you want! And no I won’t be secretly happy when you are gone, nobody can be crazier then you, (and of course I mean that in the best possible way!) I hope Granny does not mind 5 more people for supper some times! Lol!
