Looks like it would be a very peaceful retreat. Good luck with everything!

LOL ;)

Well...we're down to the wire now! I never realised just how much paperwork there is when you buy a house. I got this 1/2" thick manila envelope in the mail the other day containing the paperwork for the mortgage alone! I about fainted. LOL We're all running around trying to get the little things settled and signed before settlement.

I haven't had the moving sale yet, but it is DEFINITELY happening this weekend. Can't put it off any longer considering we move next Wednesday! :help: I also haven't really done much packing, so I'll be rushing around all this week and early next week trying to get everything settled. Hell...I'm rushing around already! ;)

I wonder if there's a ticker for when you're madly rushing around? Like...a little road with a swirly pattern made of little footprints, and a chicken with its head cut off?

Here are some new pictures of our house. My MIL took these yesterday. We get the keys tomorrow! I'll be without Internet for a week or two starting Thursday ( :(( ), but I'll be posting loads of pictures when I return. ;)

The first thing you see when you walk through the door. (Split level...I love that!)

The living area and open fireplace. (Still not sure why there's a sombrero in there, but okay.)
Posted Image

Quick view of the dining area and the sliding glass door out to the front deck.
Posted Image

The kitchen. (And our real estate agent playing with fire for whatever reason.)
Posted Image

The basin in the main bathroom. (Good basin = Less money I need to spend when I remodel it into my dream bathroom = One happy Devon!)
Posted Image

The backyard.
Posted Image

Nick in front of the in-built dog house. (At least he'll have a place to sleep now.)

Unfortunately, no. There is a vicious, feral beast of a dog living next door (which we didn't discover until Monday!), so we have to fix the fence on that side of the backyard so it can't hurt our babies. :( They'll move in with us about mid-next week.
