Been awhile since I updated but a lot has gone on! We FINALLY got approval from the bank on the short sale we put an offer in on. We are SO excited. We close January 31 and plan to move in mid-February. There is a LOT to do to get ready, but I actually look forward to it all.
I am so excited for Jenna to have a yard to play in and a pool to swim in. The neighborhood is one we have loved and wanted to be in. It just all fell into place and I am so thankful. I am not as excited to pay the new home insurance rates or property taxes though. LOL
The current owners had SO much stuff in that place that Jeff and I are nervous about what we may see when we have our walk through. Oh well! Guess we will be calling the Salvation Army if there are some “gifts” left behind.
Exhibit A – the 3rd car garage:
We traveled to NC for Christmas and were there for a week. It was a great trip. We were able to spend lots of time with my family, Jeff’s family and I got to see my BFF and eat Japanese food to celebrate her Bday (an annual tradition). Jenna witnessed her first snowfall and we ended up with about 5-6 inches to play in. Just really good memories overall.
We went to the Outback bowl game on New year’s Day - good game and the weather was perfect! 70 degrees in January – THAT is why I moved to FL!
Work is good for both of us. Jenna is fantastic. She is am amazing little girl and just cracks us up every day. She is smart, hilarious and just so much FUN. Sure there are moments of toddlerhood where I want to jump out of a window, but the moments where she grabs me and says “MY MOMMY!” makes up for it.
I hope everyone has a great 2011. We’ll see if I can get better about updating this thing…!
The house is gorgeous and I adore that picture of Jenna, she is such a doll! So glad you got the house and can't wait to see what you folks do with the place!
