Summer Almost Over!

It's been several months since I have updated...so, I thought I better get busy and do it today, because I know I will not have any extra time in the near future to tackle the task.
We have been looking for a different house all summer and finally found the one that we wanted to purchase. We signed the closing papers yesterday afternoon. It's a 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch style home with a fireplace in the living room. Kitchen with a breakfast nock and dining room with sliders to a deck. The house is apx. 10 years old and sits on 1 acre of land. We're really excited about this step in our lifes...feel very blessed! The property is on the south side of Sand Lake...closer to the highway for Tim to drive to work and closer to our families.
It seems like this summer has gone by soooo fast this year. There's alot of things we wanted to do, but never had the time. Oh well...apparently, we weren't intended to do everything we wanted to do.
Our grown kids are getting their children ready for school. School starts Tuesday! I can relate to the daughters...yeh! Kids in school!
Tim has been "trying" to restore a 1964 Dodge Polara 2-door most of the summer. He hopes to have it on the road within the next few weeks, but with us trying to move within the month, don't know how much he will get done on it.
Not much else going on...just the normal day to day stuff.
When I have pictures of the new house...will try to remember to post them.
Oh yes! My oldest grandson, Michael, is playing football this season and is in the marching band as well. Very proud of him! We will be going to at least one of his home games this season!
Hope everyone had a great summer this year...and a safe Labor Day weekend!

Hey, glad you found your new house. Did you have any trouble selling your other house? Boy, the summer sure did go fast, and we are gone! Tonight, we are in Alburquerque, NM, expect to be in Arizona tomorrow.
