House...Sold!

We were lucky. We told our realtor that our house was on the market if someone came through that was a serious buyer. We didn't want any contracts or signs out front yet. Well, that was the conversation on Sunday and by Tuesday he was calling for a showing and by Tuesday night he was calling with an offer. All the papers were signed on Friday, the day before we left for Hawaii. Crazy how everything turns out sometimes. Although, we are not thrilled with the closing day (May 8th), we feel really blessed to have it happen so quick and easy.

Now comes the packing and moving. I have this week off for Spring Break, so I am hard at work sorting, organizing, boxing, and planning. The best part is I am getting rid of a lot of things. Mom and I will have a garage sale early this summer. Here's hoping it is a success!

For now we will move into mom and dad's basement, just like before when we were building this house. They are so gracious and generous. We are also on the lookout for the "right" place in Duluth. We'll keep you posted!

Wow! What a wonderful blessing! I know the in between stage will be rough, but how exciting that you'll be able to look for a place to be together as a family in Duluth. I can't wait to hear details!

We are so happy for you three! Thanks for supper Saturday night. It was great seeing you guys and having time to catch up. I'm sure the next couple of months will be stressful with moving and ending the school year. If you need a break, it's our turn for supper so you are more than welcome here. Hopefully it will warm up and then we can grill and let the kids play outside. Jadee is also more than willing to help out when you need help lifting and carrying things out of the house. Just let us know!

We had fun having you over, too! We'd love to grill out sometime soon. We are moving at the beginning of May, so anytime after that we could use a night out!

We might be taking Jadee up on the "helping!" We want to do a lot ourselves, it is the big stuff that I am no good for. Wimpy, but I am okay with that! Talk soon!
