Well, we cleaned out the cottage in record time. Lisa and I really had fun cleaning it out. We threw out stuff, packed both of our vans to the hilt, and were back home by 5:00 or so. The kids had a ton of fun at their Aunt Amanda's and grandparents' house all day so it was good knowing that they were well taken care of while we slaved away. ;-) Ryan, Kyle and Jim are going up Wednesday evening with a trailer to hopefully get all the big stuff, and we just got word that we close Sept. 5th! Quick process! I thought I would be a tad bit sad to leave yesterday knowing I"d never see the place again, but not so much! We did have some great times there with family and friends, but we already have some trips planned that we otherwise couldn't afford if we didn't sell it. So I think financially, we'll be able to do more of a variety of stuff together as a family. The boys weren't sad either which did surprise me.
Today, we had fun at the pool. The kids all got along great and the weather was perfect for a pool day. It is such a nice pool/area- when the kids needed a break from swimming, they played basketball on the court or played at the playground. I can't wait to move there! Maybe we are on a roll....now we can focus our time, energy, and money into selling this house.

The boys in the "hood" = Brooks, Collin, Landon, Cobe, Justin and 1/2 of Jake

Sexy legs huh... good thing that pic was at a distance! Funny! We had a great time today, I'm so glad we were able to make it! Thanks for the invite! I so appreciated the long nap Elliot got afterwards too, three long hours!!!!
I'm sure you are feeling much relief with the sale of the cottage... I can't wait until I have a closing date scheduled!
I missed it again!!! I have been so busy, Jennifer Nagelkerke came over to pic up some pictures in the morning, and then I had another shoot. You got some cute pictures of everyone though!! The boys look like they were having a blast with each other!
Oh yeah, September would be great if you still wanted pictures done.
