Brandon and I just finished up a celebratory trip to the DQ for some ice cream (his choice ~ a Dilly Bar, mine ~ an M&M Blizzard). Why were we celebrating you ask? Well, there is finally a contract on the house ~ YIPPPPPPEEEEE!! We are supposed to close on everything May 16 and then we have two weeks to pack up and move on. The plan for now is to head home (that sounds so surreal) and live in one of my parents' rental units until we are given further instruction by the powers-that-be to head to another place.
It's an exciting time. We've never lived in the same town as our families (always been 2 - 4 hours away) so for the short time we'll be there I'm sure we'll gobble up every chance to see the peeps as is humanly possible. And as an added bonus it will be much cheaper to live in Manchester, so we'll be able to save up some extra cabbage for HAH's future and the down payment on house #2.
Must catch up on classes and begin packing for a weekend trip to New Orleans.
Hooray for a contract, heading home, and not having to keep an immaculate house! :)

Fantastic! Super! Wonderful! Praise God!
What a relief!! And you're traveling again ... that's a long trip! Lots of rest area and gas station bathrooms to inspect!
This will probably be the last long trip that we take until after HAH is here... at least, that's the plan. I usually get a pretty strong calling from the beach in July ~ Santa Rosa Beach is one of my greatest loves and relaxation points, though 8 months preggers and me in a bathing suit can't be a good mixutre! :)
Congratulations! Hope the next move meets all of your hopes and dreams!
Yeah! Th thrill of not having to keep the house perfect should make you feel much better! Happy trip!
