This weekend the boys and I have had the pleasure of spending time with mom and Larry. Today, we went to visit Grandpa Grant and Georgie and then I drove mom out to see our new house! Keegan was thrilled to run around and check out his new room, he even started telling me where he wanted everything. It was very exciting to see all of the progress that has been done on the house in the past week. All the flooring except the carpet is in, the fireplace tile has been set and is just waiting for grout, the remaining light fixtures have been installed and the shelving in the closets is in. So all that is left is the carpet, bathroom sinks, toilets, kitchen counter top and the appliances installed. It may sound like a lot but it is amazing what can be done in just a few days. In fact, we are now hoping for a May 15th closing date instead of May 28th. Lets keep our fingers crossed!
Love you all!

May 28th!
Our offer was accepted!
The house is not fully finished so we get to pick out some of the final touches and really make it exactly what we want. It is located in Westpark, (where our old house is), right on the corner when you turn on Big Bend Loop. The lot a little over 10,000 sq ft so there will be lots of yard for the kids to play in. Keegan is very excited about having his room full of all his things again. And I think dad and Leslie are especially happy at the thought of having their house back to normal again, although I think dad may tear up a little. As of right now our closing date is May 28th, giving us a month between when our Illinois house closes and when our new Alaska house closes.
We are so happy that things are finally coming together and hope to have all of our family and friends over to our new home soon.

Home (almost) sweet home
Josh and I are VERY happy that the sale of our house is starting to come to an end. Josh is currently driving from the Indianapolis airport to Effingham Illinois in order to empty out our house, do a few repairs and say goodbye to his friends and family. We'll be back to visit someday but not for a while.
Last Saturday Josh and I met with our realtor here in Alaska and went to look at some houses. After viewing just three houses we found one that we love. And today I put an offer in on it. I hope to hear back sometime early tomorrow. Lets keep our fingers crossed that it goes well.
