We definatly got our house.

[Beauty]

Just got a call from the realtor a while ago. The seller's offer on another house was accepted and the contingency (of them finding another house before we close) will be withdrawn tomorrow. So its officially ours....now we are just waiting to see how soon the closing date will be...in other words how long it takes them to move. Anyway thought I would give anyone interested an update. Now all the fun....PACKING...UUGGHH!

Cool! What great news! Congratulations.

Guess you can start wrapping the breakables you don't use much in newspaper.

I envy your new house, but boy, I don't envy having to move. I hate moving! Yuck, yuck, yuck.

I'm not so worried about moving our house...its my mom that I'm worried about....She has lived in that house since 1969....so thats 30+ years of stuff...and my mom is a pack rat! She has more knic-knacks then I can even begin to explain. I tried to talk her into having an estate sale with all the junk from my house, her house and my grandmother's apartment but she hates carport sales. I told her I would do it all she wouldn't even have to be there.

Maybe if you tell her that all the money she makes from selling her 30+ years of nick nacks, and other yardsale stuff you can put that money towards the new living room set she wanted to buy instead of taking the Disney trip?

Congratulations Beth!!!! I am so happy for you! It looks like you found a beautiful home. Good luck with the packing (especially of your mom's stuff).

 

[Beauty]

LOL...she does want that new living room set. She now also wants gosh I don't even know what they are called...the thing that goes in the foyer with the mirror over it....I don't even know what its used for except looks.

Glad it is all working out for you as times like these can be SO stressful! I think I missed your original post about the 'house' - I take it that Mom is moving in with your family? How nice to include her! Years ago that is what most everyone did --- lived as extended families. I wish that I could afford to buy about 100 acres and have all of my 'family' build houses close to each other! How fortunate you are to have your extended family all under one roof!

 

[Beauty]

Yep, actually it will be John, John-Cole and I, my mother and my 86 year old grandmother. So 3 incomes affording one large house. The house is perfect for us...it has plenty of privacy so we won't all be running over each other. Thankfully we all get along super....my DH and my mom are really close and my mom and I are best friends....we are together all the time now anyway, may as well invest and make it official. Its sad because with the exception of a few long lost cousins who we never see the above is our entire family. I would love to have a large extended family but there are only 5 of us.
