I am Thankful...

We signed on Friday at 6 p.m...

We get keys on Tuesday, do not have a time... Have cleaning to do... Any help would be appreciated... Like that is open for negotiations... people are just free to drop in and clean, clean, clean.... YUP!!!

And will move our bed over on Wednesday...

So... that is our update!... It has been a bumpy ride.

We found out the mortgage company is in New Jersey... the hurricane and blizzard took their share out of that state... which might explain a bit of the slowness in this paperwork and process.

We are just thankful to be on this end of the paperwork... and grateful to have a home to move to.

It's been a very long ride... with many stops along the way... but with the Lords help, we are finally making it.

Woot Woot!!!

I know where my roasting pan is!!  We bought the ham we are cooking for the family dinner on Thursday... So that part is good...  Al is driving down on Wednesday and will be driving home on Sunday.  He will be around to help with this move too... Yeah!!!  The more hands the merrier...

Looking forward to getting together for the annual broom hockey game on Thursday... I feel good enough to get out there this year after losing a few pounds... soooooo  maybe I'll play, who knows... Warren and I would make a great team!!!  hehehehe

OK... off the hook...

Everyone is off the hook Saturday...

Including me....  I guess I am going to bake cakes at my friends instead of clean a house... without a key it's impossible to clean and put in dog doors.

We are just waiting ... our middle name and here we thought the wait was done... and we were finally making the move...

SURPRISE...

well they (still not sure who they are) say Tuesday... so we will see... hahaha... I did pack 4 more boxes... so one day I may get packed up and ready to move, and then again... maybe not.

I am going to bake boiled raisin cakes with Margaret out in Eagle Mtn cuz I'm so tired of waiting to get moved to bake my cakes and put them in a freezer that might one day be moved to a new spot... hehehehe

sigh...

I'm trying to stay upbeat, but this is really taking a beating out of both Mike and I....

It's a good thing we have faith...

Hugs to all

HOUSE ! IT'S A GO..............

We finally got a date.

Hurrah.... November 9, 2012....

I'm pretty excited... considering it was supposed to be my birthday... Not to far off.  But if I were having a baby... no way would I wait that long to have it.  So......

Here we go.  As of right now... I will be having a cleaning party on Saturday around noon to make sure all the cabinets and drawers and bathrooms etc. are clean... Mike will be working on the dog run unless we are in the middle of a snowstorm... but we have 2 dog doors to put in that day also.

I'm thinking of windows and cleaning of rooms etc... so that on Monday I get the carpets done... I am hoping to get some of the bushes and trees trimmed before WINTER hits... they are very overgrown... (hint hint Kristy tell Zach & Louise tell Jason).

(the front door/front porch)
If I can get the basics done on Saturday or over the next few days after we get the keys, then Mike and I can slowly start to move items in.  I figure we will get the major move started Friday and finish up on Saturday.

John and Es are going to stay at the house in Springville for the next month or two, we talked to the property management people, hoping that when BYU changes out again, they can find something closer to their work towards the end of Dec the the first of Jan... This helps us some by us by not having to have everything out before the end of November.  But I would like to have everything out as soon as possible.

Here is the address: 2737 E. 1470 S. Spanish Fork, UT 84660.  It's off Hwy 6, Take the light at Canyon St to the right (it only goes right) and you will be turning left onto 2600 East (it has the blue house on the corner that looks like a doll house).  Stay on this street and as it turns to the left it's on the left with the street light in the yard... If you come to the end of the street... you've gone to far... :)  

If you can come and help... come on over... If you can't... We still love you... I'm sure Mike could always use some help with the fencing and dog doors... Bring your energy and enthusiasm... I'm excited... and exhausted...
