Ryan and The House

Ryan, aka Sags, spent this past weekend with us and I don't know what we would have done with out him! Poor guy came to visit us, well Wilson, before he went to Brazil for 5 months, and we put him to work. Ryan and Chris planted trees, weeded the rock beds around the house, moved rock, built shelves for the closets and cleaned out the garage. Ry not only helped with the house, he watched Wilson so I could clean and paint AND he cooked (and cleaned up afterwards) a fantastic Mother's Day meal. Guatemalan black beans, enchiladas and rice. It was one of the best meals I have in a long time. Deeeelicious!!



Now Ry is gone and the basement is FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you understand what I said here people? The basement is finished! Our Realtor brought other Realtors from her office by today and we all ready have someone scheduled to look at the house tonight. You never know we may sell it today... An Open House is scheduled for this Sunday and our Realtor thinks we will definitely have offers, if not today, Sunday for sure.




Saturday Chris has an air show and afterwards we plan on driving to Spokane to, hopefully, put an offer down on a house. I have been working with an agent there and have some houses that I am dying to see. You never know, this time next week we could have bought a new home in Spokane and sold this one. I don't think we will find a house as great as our home here but you never know. I will sure miss this house and this neighborhood!

It seems like you just moved in. What the hell? Who is your friend? How do you know him? The dinner sounds delicious! Good luck with the house stuff!!!

It sucks you have to sell the house after putting so much work in to it, but hopefully you will find a new place even better and it will all be worth it.

Have fun house hunting.

I hadn't looked at all of the basement pictures. It looks awesome! I would call you now, but it's something like 2:45 there. Let us know how the house selling/hunting goes.

Just checking in on y'all! I see you and your beautiful family are doing great. You look great in the family portraits! Will is such a handsome boy :) You have 2 very cute boys in the house-how do you do it?!? ;) Good luck with selling the house. Hope everything goes well. Give the dogs a pat from me.

Is Ryan your brother? I'm so confused. Regardless, the meal he cooked sounds soooooo tasty.

Good luck with the house situations!

Sorry ya'll. I didn't mean to confuse you. Ryan was Chris' roommate at the Academy and really good friend. He is really more like family. It seems like most of our military friends have become part of the famiy.

Missing you all.
