HOME SWEaT HOME

Good is so good!!!! What a whirlwind August and September. Mark was asked to go to Maylasia for week for work and while he was away I finish staging the house. The sign went up in the yard and in three days we got two offers!!!! WOW!!! We weren't quite ready for such a quick good-bye!!! With that, the panick set in because we set the closing date for Sept 26th, leaving us about a month to find something else with limited time to house hunt. We looked at many yucky houses in our price range with much disappointment. Then one magical day, 3 weeks before closing, the Lord answered our prayers. Our new house isn't in the exact context that I dreamt it, but it is what we asked for....a living room and dining room up front, the kitchen and family room together, the bedrooms all together and a mudroom!!! We do have to tear down a few walls of wallpaper, change out the kitchen cabinet doors and countertops, paint, replace light fixtures, and renovating the master bath. A little sweat never hurt us and soon it will be HOME SWEeET HOME. So, almost all of the boxes are emptied and the walls are slowly being painted!!!

Jaxon is enjoying school and Miss Julia this year and impressing us every day with how fast he learns and how silly he can be. Annee is another kid who impresses us daily..... she started crawling at 6 1/2 m!!!! And recently she has been pulling herself up and stands forever there and moves around that way!!!


In October we had a family date to the pumpkin patch with our favorite Kochers!!! Jaxon fed the farm animals, chased some goats, had a pony ride and picked a pumpkin. What a perfect day!!!

For Halloween Jaxon was Dennis the Menice and Annee was a snowbunny :-)


This month we have been visiting family and friends in OHIO!!! We have been busy about every other day!!! Mark has been a doll while we have been gone and taking care a honeydo list. I can wait to see how wonderful the house is going to look!!!


Well, lots of plans for the house in December and cannot wait!!!
