we got an offer on our house in Baltimore!!!  our realtor was expecting two offers this weekend, so the first has come , we are hoping the second comes before we need to decide on the first one.  so far the first offer is great, the only thing they want that we are unsure of is that they want the house professionally painted, and we dont know how much that would cost.  other than that the offer sounds great!  we might even still have money to go towards a newer van, but I’m trying not to be greedy about getting money back, our first priority is to pay back the money we borrowed to put down on this house.

we’ve had a family oriented weekend.  Friday night Dean, Caleb and I went to see Night at the Museum after dinner at Dean’s parents house, they kept the little ones so we could see the movie.  it was a good movie so I was glad we got to go as a family.   We spent Saturday morning catching up on laundry and resting.   We made it out for lunch and then spent the day shopping.  Santa promised Caleb heely’s but left a note on Christmas Morning that his elves couldnt make them or find them at the stores so he was sending money for his mom and dad to buy them so we went to get those yesterday.  we were also going to find some cd’s Dean and I wanted.  I ended up w/ a new pair of comfy shoes, so I was happy!  Bo got a toy on clearance that made him very happy, I was suprised at all of the sales still.  I guess it’s still part of the post holiday clear out for the stores who stocked up before Christmas on things.   we went to church last night then the little ones and I came home to crash since we had been out all day and none of us got a nap, so we were all pretty tired.  Dean and Caleb went back out to go to get some things that were on sale at the grocery store since that sale ended yesterday.   We barely got up and ready on time for church this morning but I was glad we did.   last night we went to the church we used to go to when we lived here, and today we went to the new church.   we’re home letting the kids nap and then Dean needs to go get some new jeans.  I think his parents are coming here for dinner tonight.  I took a nap already, I really needed it!

so it’s been a family filled weekend, it’s been nice being together and really having nothing to do.   well gotta go get some things done and decide what I’m making for dinner today.  i’ll post more when we find out more about selling the house.  unsure if we’ll need to go back to Baltimore to be at the closing or not, I’m kind of hoping we do!

hope everyone had a great weekend!
