House

The deal with our house was going very smooth almost too smooth. I got an email with things that need to be fixed. There are only 4 things so not bad at all. Some we knew about. However, one thing is completely ridiculous! The house is cedar shakes and there are some parts of the house were the paint is peeling a little. No big deal we can touch up the paint.
The frustrating thing about it is the buyers do not care. They want to side the house with the tax break they will get. The only reason we have to paint is because the bank will not find the loan until the chipped paint is touched up. The buyers argued it even, with no avail.So this weekend we will be going into IF to fix the issues the buyers and the bank want fixed. I guess I shouldn't complain it could be worse.

Finally

Well it has only been the entire summer and most of the fall, but I have decided to post. From July until now has been pretty busy.
Football is over. Patrick played his last game last week. Football was a lot of fun. Matt and I are not big football fans but were there to be supportive. We ended up loving it. It was so much fun to go to the freshman games and cheer for the team. They were not the best team and lost most of their games, but it was fun. Patrick had fun playing and will probably play again next year.


Patrick is in band as well. October was a busy month for him. He has been doing marching band competitions through all of October as well as September. They have all been on Saturdays so that has consumed him!



We have finally sold our house. Well we are in process. We are supposed to sign on Nov 10. I am pretty excited and cannot wait. It is bittersweet. I am glad to move on and glad not to have that expense any more, but it will be sad. I love that house and the neighbors. I am sure I will cry when it is final.
We put an offer in on a house in Burley.It is a short sale and we put an offer in 5 weeks ago and the bank still has not assigned it to a real person. So we are not sure if the offer has been accepted or not. We are starting to look at other houses to see if there are any others out there that may be better for us. We are looking Tuesday, so I guess we will see.
