Happy Birthday Ben!

Ben's birthday is thursday. He will be 25! Crazy...Life is so hectic right now when him in Smyrna more than Winchester. We have to celebrate tonight since this is the only night I get to see him this week. I am making his favorite cake and we are going to sit on the porch and hand out candy to all the kids..woo hoo...haha... Thanks to everyone for a fun get together Monday night for his birthday. Shannon the lasagna was great!

For Sale!

We signed all the paper work with Rusty Monday evening to get our house on the market. Rusty is taking pictures friday afternoon, but our listing should be posted Thursday. I did a deep cleaning of the house today and it looks much better after I did that. There are still a few items I would like to take care of but it isn't anything that will keep me from feeling confident about showing the house. We are thanking God for the rain we have recently received. This will make our roses and our new bushes look really nice for Rusty's pictures.

I really don't think the house will sit on the market long. That is my hope anyway. I'm still shooting for moving before Christmas. Wish us luck!

The race is on

Well, we have six months to get ourselve moved to Smyrna. In my mind, we should've been moved yesterday...it is going to cost us so much money driving back and forth to work. We are in the process of getting everything in the home ready for showing the house. We just replaced our rotting back door. I'm working all the hours I can get at St. Thomas so that we can save save save. We are going to set aside a carpet fund to offer the the buyer for our home. I want to do some landscaping this weekend while the weather is nice. We had some shrubs that died and we need to rip them out and replace them with something alive..haha

We found a house in Smyrna that we fell in love with. Rusty checked the comps for us and they have a reasonable asking price. So once we put our home on the market, I want to make an offer on the home contingent that our home sells. :) I would be absolutely tickled if we could be in Smyrna by Christmas. Hopefully our home will sell in no time. We've done so much work to it. My goal this weekend is to declutter and haul it all to the dump!! Wish us luck!

HE GOT THE JOB!!! Woo hoo! Thank you everyone for your prayers and love!
