Argh, matey! Hand over yer candy!
I put together Tommy's costume from things we had around the house. My mom found Molly's costume and mailed it from California. Thankfully both were easy and comfortable for the kids. We trick-or-treated with some friends in their neighborhood. We probably visited about 10 houses, but that was just enough for our little ones. Especially since it started to rain towards the end. It was so fun to share Halloween with our friends!
The big news around here is that we have a contract on a house! We are so excited! As I mentioned in a previous post, we've been talking and looking for awhile. We visited this house on Friday morning and over the weekend our offer was accepted!
The house has so many wonderful things about it. It's on a cul-de-sac and the backyard backs to the woods. There is even a little creek that runs through our property! It has much more space than our current house and the bedroom in the basement is perfect for houseguests (which we have regularly!)
I absolutely love the neighborhood and the town. It's not that far from our current house, but it's amazing how a few miles can make such a difference. The house is super close to Tommy's preschool and I've heard great things about the Catholic parish/school that's close by. I think it's going to be a wonderful place to raise our family!
The home inspection is on Friday and I'm excited to get inside the house again to look around. Hopefully everything will go smoothly and we will close the first week of December. My husband ordered this PODS right away so we can start packing up some things. Guess I can't park in the driveway for the next month or so...
St. Joseph, pray for our house and our move!
