Closing Day TODAY

Well we closed on our house Friday afternoon. It wasn't painful at all, there were nice comfy chairs and sodas and cookies with sprinkles. We were done in less than an hour. The seller still needs to sign, and the deed needs to be recorded, but we hope to get keys by Monday.

Lori has been packing like crazy. Faye gets anxious when we move things around and pack her stuff, but has been getting better at putting things in boxes and not taking them out again.

I hope we can find some help on Wednesday night because there are 3 other people in our ward moving on that evening too. Our ward has some student housing and with graduation happening this week there is allot of moving going on. We had hoped on closing a week ago (and before that a month ago)so we could do some work on the house. Ohh well we will just have to take it as is.

We helped Stan and Betty move in to their place on Wednesday night. We are very excited to have them in the area again. We will be living within a few hundred yards of each other once we move.

Lori's Birthday Candle

My Dad Jim is a rep for a company that sends card and gifts by mail. By far the coolest gift they have are these crazy candles that light up and play music. Lori and the little one just love them. Here are some pics of the fun...

Elder Holland Easter message

This came from off of the LDS.org and is pretty good.

Adam Ward

Here is an article about a really talented friend of ours that just put out a CD, Adam Ward. Lori bought his album and she and the little one sure enjoy it. Congratulations and Good Luck ADAM! Hopefully we can attend your live concert this July in Yosemite NP.

The move is off... for now

We have had a set back with the house. The bank won't be able to close until the 23rd of April, so we are living out of boxes in the Apartment still. We have an aggressive schedule to keep to get some work done on the house between when we close and when we have to be out of the apartments. I hope we can do some tile and Lori wants some painting done.

Good news is that the property managers of where we are now hadn't rented our place yet so we still get to stay where we are until we need to get out.
