Oh the beautiful weather!!!!!!

I can't remember an April so gorgeous in Michigan. This is the kind of weather I thrive on! I so hope it is here to stay. Jen's boys came over today b/c she had an appt., and the kids had fun playing outside with Jake and Ella too all afternoon. Love when the neighborhood comes alive again and my kids can meet up with all of their neighborhood friends. I brought my kids in around 6:30 and now they are all showered and fed and in their pjs. I am hoping with all the playing they did, it will be an early night for everyone!

Sunday was a great day- after Sunday School and church, we got to hang out with Lynette and run some errands, see her new house, tour some new houses, and the kids all got to play as well. We were really needing a Baby Elliot fix around here (my kids, me and Ryan too!!!!!). And Cobe had been missing Landon.

Yesterday, I dragged some stuff to Tonya's for a garage sale. I had not planned on selling anything this year because to start getting stuff out was overwhelming, so I just thought when we move, we'll donate everything to Goodwill. But we got called for a showing at the last minute Monday morning, so lots of stuff ended up in the back of my van b/c I didn't have time or a place for it to go. When I rode by Tonya's in the afternoon, she suggested I leave it at her house, and she and Lisa even priced it for me!!!! YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT!!!! Thanks a ton girls! I made posters to take to Wendie's for some furniture and Ryan's truck that is for sale, and I still need to get them to her house. I may do that now. Tonya had people go through her stuff last night and I have already made $121.00. I couldn't believe it!

We had yet another showing today, and supposedly have one Friday as well. We already heard back from the realtor, and yesterday's couple made an offer on another house, and today's couple decided that they want to build a house instead. Hmmm.... once again, a lot of cleaning/packing up for naught! But the couple that is coming on Friday has already come through twice, so our hopes are on them!!!!!!!

This morning Ryan and I got to pick out our hardware for our kitchen cabinets and bathrooms. An easy task that we didn't need the decorator for. We drove by our new house, and they have built on the front porch. I'll have to go by tomorrow and take pictures. Thanks to Lisa (Spottie) we didn't have our kids with us, so then we went to visit Ryan's grandmother in the hospital. She had her gallbladder removed yesterday and was supposed to go home last night, but they kept her a little longer b/c she was a little dehydrated. She seemed to be doing well when we visited and was going home after lunch.

Tomorrow morning I'm going with Brooks' preschool to a farm. He is so excited about his fieldtrip. They get to ride ponies, so I'll be back tomorrow to post pictures.
