SOLD!

You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away and know when to run..... 
This is the one line that Mark sent to me in email yesterday. He is very funny to me. Is it just me that finds humor in Mark? I think the man is so witty and he makes tuff situations comical. Even if he doesn't like it he makes a joke.   
Moving on to the house news, we agreed to sell our house on Cinco de Mayo.  A little irony to sweeten the deal. (If you know my neighbors you know why it is ironic.) Again something Mark pointed out. Nothing could really sweeten the deal because the market STINKS!  At least now we can buy a house here in loverly N Alabama.  
I am hoping over time we can get over selling our house in a buyers market.  At least we weren't upside down and have money to walk away with.  I understand this is not the case in many sales that are going on right now. I feel blessed to have a buyer in a buyers market and feel like once we are settled in our new house we will be even more blessed.  We close June 19th and we have already been looking for a house  The difference now is if we really like it we can offer the seller a ridiculously low amount of money and we too might get a deal.  BAH!

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

Mohawk!

    Um, where to start?   I went away for the weekend with girlfriends to get some R & R and scrapbook.  Little did I know I was going to come home to a Mohawk.  GO RAYS!  I think Nathan is loving the attention that comes with such a dramatic do.   I really can't believe Mark did such a crazy thing.  I don't think anyone that saw Nathan at church could believe it either. For all you wondering, I love it and I will go away on another girls weekend.  It's not like he gave all the kids a mohawk.  The girls still have their lovely locks.

Time

Yes, my topic again is about time.  This one is not about the waste of time, but the passing of time.  As in how long it has been over a period of many days, years, etc.   Saturday night I went scrapbooking at a friends house.  Something we have done for about two years!  WHAT?  Two years, at least once a month.  Where did that time go?  I feel like it was just yesterday that Meagen and I where going to Anita's.  At the time if you would have told me my scrap buddy was moving in the matter of months to Fuquay-Varina I would have said two things,  "Where in the world it that?" and then I would have said "yeah, right!". She probably would have said the same things at the time.  I now see it all as a God wink.  Most of you have been to a Women of Faith conference and have heard the term God wink.  I appreciate all the God winks in my life.  See, at the time I didn't know Anita except from an occasional candle party or birthday party.  We were aquanitices at the
