Update time! After having our house on the market for a month or so earlier this winter with no luck, we pulled it off while we were making the decison to stay in CA or move to ID. Since we put an offer in on a house there, it was time to put our house back on the market here so we could remove the contingency on our offer. Within 10 minutes of signing the paperwork, we got not one but two offers! Both for what we wanted, and both from people who looked a the house a month or so ago. We accepted the better of the two offers and have sold the house! The only bad thing....we have to be out by May 21, and we won't be moving to Boise until July 1st at the earliest....so, can we use your couch?
We started packing boxes right away, and while packing, Marisa got two phone calls for potential job interviews in Boise on Friday. So she flew out tonight, is interviewing with one school in the morning and one in the afternoon and meeting the realtor after that to get into the house and take some photos. Despite the fact that she is really nervous about the interviews, she will do great. She is such a good teacher and represents herself and her desire to teach so well, that I will not be surprised if she comes home with two offers. Good luck honey, we're all pulling for you here.
The other big news is that Jake got a visit from the "night-night" fairy. This visit was prompted by a visit to the dentist, who told Jake that the "night-night" was starting to hurt his teeth. So Jake put all of his night-night's on our dresser that night (he didn't want the fairy to actually come into his room!), and the fairy brought him some new super hero "guys" and an Emporer Zurg figure. He was very excited, but is having some trouble getting to sleep without his night night and keeps saying how he misses it, but is doing a great job getting through it.
Auntie Sue flew back from her road trip with Mom to MN. Marisa and Jake met her at the airport. Of course, she came bearing gifts and now Jake has even more stuff, but he missed his Auntie Sue. Marisa and the boys are heading to our friends Anna & Geoff's Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, while I work on the house, and then we are off to Auntie Sue's on Sunday for Easter Brunch.
Happy Easter Everybody and we'll let you know how Marisa's interviews went ASAP.
