We are home!

Well, we have been back from our vacation for a few hours now and we are slowly getting things put away and catching up on what's new here. We had an incredible time with our friends and the weather was perfect. We did some shopping, some sightseeing, went to the beach and just RELAXED! It was so needed after a busy week with work and getting the house ready to go on the market. The kids had a good time. Despite a few late nights, Caleb was still up at 5:30 a.m. EVERY DAY!!! We don't understand how the kid does it?!?! So naptime was thoroughly enjoyed by all each day. While we were away we had a couple showings on our house and actually received an offer on Thursday. It was low so we countered, they countered, we countered again and now we are waiting to hear back. We were excited to hear about the offer and just encouraged that people are looking and seem to like what they see. It is strange to see our house for sale though. You can check it out online if you want. Just go to realtor.com, click on advanced search and type in the MLS # of 70778103 at the bottom of the screen. The pictures came out great and I've never seen our house so CLEAN!!!! Now the challenge will be to keep it that way! We are continuing to pray for a smooth and quick transition for our family as we move. Also, while we were away, our niece was born. Isabella Jean was born to my brother and sister-in-law on Thursday and we got to visit her today on our way home. She is beautiful and so tiny! So, I will of course share some vacation pictures with you in the next couple of days or so but I just had to post a picture of Isabella. Isn't she so cute????? I hope you all had a great week!
