44/365 We are under contract!!!

Today was a GREAT day! The sun was shining. We were able to get out of the house and play at the park. Jacob is home...Oh...and we have a CONTRACT on the house!!!! We are beyond thrilled and the offer was for our full asking price with us paying $2,500 of their closing. We consider this a great offer. If everything goes well we are set to close on March 29th! I can't even begin to describe the feeling I have knowing at least some sort of a date! Living in limbo was driving me crazy and I just feel at peace now. Of course we have a lot of changes ahead of us but we will be TOGETHER!

The kids had a lot of fun playing at the park today. The weather was great and we just had a great day!

Oh...Tyler has been begging me to let him learn how to play the drums. He has been extremely persistent about this and mentions it a lot. He wants drums and wants to play them. He has even been pretending to play them in the air. Today at Wal-Mart we came across a little drum set in the clearance isle. Ty just lit up and asked in the sweetest little voice if he could please get some drums. It was so cheap I couldn't pass it up but told him it was going to be for his birthday. When we got home Jacob let him have it and just said it would come out of his birthday money. He was so cute! Amazingly enough he isn't loud and annoying (ask me tomorrow though). It is when Jackson joins in the mix that we just have a big loud mess. Tyler really wants to protect them and not just bang on them which I appreciate. Seriously...I can't believe I bought my child a drum set. I don't know what I was thinking other than he really seems to have a genuine interest in this and I will support him.

Hope everyone's weekend is just as wonderful as ours has been!
