YAYYYYY!!!


We got an offer on the house last night. Actually, we are in shock about it because the market has been so slow and our house has been sitting for so long and we still got FULL PRICE!! Actually, they offered $10,000 over what we're asking and want us to pay up to $10,000 in closing costs. Our realtor doesn't think the closing costs will be quite that high so we may even end up with MORE than we were asking. How strange is that? I mean we're HAPPY but so perplexed as to why they give us such a good offer... we're SO blessed I guess. The couple said the house was so nice that they thought it would be offensive to ask for any less. Anyways, we are going to sign the offer this morning. We will need to be out by January 18th (better than Christmas!)

So, as if I didnt already whine about being busy we're adding this to the plate. Jeremy jokingly says that whenever we have a move coming up I be sure to get pregnant.. I was pregnant last time we moved too... which makes me much less help obviously. But, I can PACK and move the lighter stuff, so LOTS to do!
