Happy Friday!

It's finally Friday after somewhat of a long week. We have a nice relaxing weekend in store for us. The only plans we have is to attend a retirement party for my Aunt Betty/Uncle Don. I find it pretty cool that they are both retiring within a couple of months of each other. I hope that they enjoy their time together!
Yesterday was my mother-in-laws birthday so Happy Birthday Lisa! I hope that your day was great!
We have not heard anything new on the Laredo house. Our realtor is on vacation until early next week so I am assuming that we will know more when she returns.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Stay Cool!

Happy Friday!

We got an offer on the house!!

We finally got an offer on our house and we are so super excited! A couple of weeks ago we lowered the price a bit because the new houses around ours were selling for cheaper and I think it has paid off. We will definitely be in the hole for a while but we can take care of that quickly and be well on our way to bigger and better things. The buyers want to close by the end of August so we will keep our fingers crossed that everything will work out. If course we are just entering the ten day option period so we will hold our breathe slightly for the next ten days and hope for the best. I will keep you posted!

Another weekend has passed

It's Monday again and hopefully this week will be a good one. We had a nice relaxing weekend to prepare us for the week. The Fischers came to visit on Sunday and see our house and we had a good time visiting with them because we don't see them as often as we used to.
Jeremy received a call Saturday evening from the realtor for the Laredo house and she said that there would be someone submitting an offer on our house Monday. We haven't heard anything yet but hopefully by the end of the business day we will hear from her. We are really hoping that it's close to what we have the house listed at because we are already going to take a hit on the house. We will keep you posted.

It's almost Friday!

It's almost Friday and I can't wait. This week has been dragging and it has been rough at work. This weekend it will be so nice to relax. I have a shower for Amy on Saturday morning but that's it so we will be spending the rest of the weekend at home just hanging out. In a couple of weeks we will be going to a wedding and I will be going to a baby shower all in the same day. My best friend Brooke is expecting her first baby....and it's a boy. She will be visiting from Colorado to attend the wedding of a high school friend so her family is giving her a shower while she is here. I can't wait to see her...and her belly!
Hope that you all have a wonderful weekend. Stay cool!

Pray for Rain

We are back from the weekend trip to San Angelo....and it feels wonderful to make it home in only four hours (compared to 7 hours to Laredo) and to stay in one place once we return. We enjoyed Payton's (our niece) first birthday party Saturday night. Her birthday was actually on July 4th but they had the party Saturday night and the theme was still red, white and blue. It was fun and she got tons of gifts.
Upon our return we recevied a notice that we are in stage 1 water restrictions. The note indicates that we can only water on Wednesdays and Saturdays. That is going to be a huge adjustment for our yard because we have been watering every night. It really stinks because we are trying to get our yard to look like something (other than dead grass) and now we have to cut back on the watering. Hopefully it will rain soon so that we can increase our watering again.
Pray for rain!

Happy Monday!

The fourth of July weekend has come and gone and it was great; we did nothing. Well we actually worked around the house and got some more things in order. We decided not to go anywhere for the holiday and the restful time was very much needed. We don't have a lot going on right now other than getting to enjoy coming home to each other every evening after work; it's been different but I think I can get used to this....thank goodness because Jeremy tells me I'm stuck. I really don't mind at all. This coming weekend we will be celebrating our niece's 1st birthday so lots of fun in the near future.
Have a great week!
