We Got The House!!

So excited! Yesterday we got the call - we got the house we wanted!! Only problem is that now I can't sleep because of all the plans going through my head. So much shopping to be done! On the nice end of things, we don't have to move everything in one day - we don't have to be out of the apartment till the 15th so we can take a little extra time to move our stuff. Well, that's all for now - I'm off to work!! Hi Ho Hi Ho...

Happy Paques - as my son would say!

Well, it's Easter weekend and I would like to take a moment to wish everyone a very Happy Easter weekend! We are all eager for the big Easter Egg hunt here tomorrow morning - like any of us need more chocolate! What am I saying - there's always room for chocolate! Luckily, we are having a fabulous weekend, weather-wise! Howie fixed up the big bike for Ethan yesterday and after a few stumbles, he's been well on his way. Did I ever notice a difference today when we all took off on some of the local trails. I actually got to work up a bit of a sweat this time too! He doesn't have to peddle so hard to go a bit faster & I can finally work up some speed as well. I think this will be a great summer for riding - he's only gonna get faster!!
We also had an appointment to look at a rental house today! Because of the current economy & job situation, neither of us is ready for buying. But, we found a house for rent about a block and a half away. We met with the realtor managing the property today and all 3 of us are getting our hopes up, I think. It's not huge - but more than enough room. Best part is lots of storage, a front & back yard, fully fenced! It's directly across from a school yard & 2 parks - complete with playgrounds! Score 1 for Ethan. Being across from the school/playground means its patrolled by police and people MUST be going less than 30km in the area! We find out on Tuesday so cross your fingers for us! It would be nice to get out of this sauna of a building before it gets too hot! Well, once again, Happy Easter everyone!
