Offer Accepted!

The people accepted out counter offer on my mom's house! Woo-Hoo!
Plus, they are working to doing the closing while we are out in Ohio the first of the month.
Praying that all goes well with this sale. This will be one less worry on my mind.

Offer on my Mom's House

We have an offer on mom's house! Please pray that it sells! The last one fell through due to the buyer wanting us to not only go a lot lower in price but also, pay for their closing and pay for the water/sewage assessment. We countered, but found they weren't willing to work with us.
So this past weekend another offer came in!
Praying this one will go through...so far we have countered once and they countered back. This is the last counter...we are set on the price(they countered on), they have to decide one more thing...if they will pay it or not. We even agreed to help them with some of the closing costs. They seem willing to work with us.

This is my childhood home...

My dress!

I finally got my dress for DD's wedding I wanted, in the color I wanted, and the price I wanted!!

I can't say enough about Zappos customer service. I found the exact dress at Mac*s. but to was too much for me to spend on ONE dress. I happen to put it in a search engine on Google and found it at Zappos. Got the size and color I wanted(and noted that the stock mentioned only one left in stock)...they sent me the wrong color. They had the dress in my size, but no more the color I wanted. So I sent it back and for my trouble, they refunded my money and gave me a $25 coupon! What I love about Zappos, too, is there Free shipping (and Free return shipping!) Unfortunately, the rep. said they probably wouldn't be getting anymore in. :-(

So, its been a month, and tonight I got an email that my dress was back in stock...and they had ONE of my size and color. I went on the site and ordered it right away! Its on its way here and I am hoping that this dress will be it! I will keep you posted!

DH's day at the beach


DH had another successful day at the beach.
He found a nice size shark tooth, an alligator tooth and an arrow head!
(I forgot to set them against a ruler!)




He also found all these little teeth...he has a good eye!



Then the best part for us was he stopped at a local produce stand and brought home some fresh homegrown tomatoes! :-)
