Headed North

Saturday morning was INSPECTION DAY!!  Anyone who has sold a home knows how intimidating this day is for the seller, knowing the inspector will usually find a whole list of things that need to be fixed before closing!

But we were also excited for the day since we would be meeting the new buyers from Texas and their realtor.  We headed down to the old house Saturday morning with coffee and rolls for everyone and were delighted to find the new buyers super friendly and very excited about buying the house!

They had brought a trailer load of furniture and we allowed them to unload it into the garage so they wouldn't have to use a storage unit for a few weeks.

The inspection went great, even though there were a few small items listed along with a couple of larger items if the buyers wished to pursue them!  It was a nice morning and as soon as it was over, we headed to Ft Collins for the balance of the weekend!

Glenn wanted to attend a garden show up there on Sunday and I wanted to take the kids out to a movie!!  Jill already had plans that evening with friends but the rest of us enjoyed Chinese takeout and watched a movie on TV.

Sunday morning the guys headed out and I went to Sunday School with Jill and the kids - they had a really nice presentation for the Sunday School - different stations of the Cross with a short bible story and crafts to do at each one - all the kids loved it!!

We went out for smoothies afterwards (my treat for Valentine's Day) and then Aleah had a birthday party so Jill, Parker and I shopped a little bit and then headed home.  Later that day I took the 2 kids to the NEW theater in town - reclining seats - and we saw Zootopia!!  Popcorn was on the agenda and wow can those 2 eat popcorn!!!


After the movie we walked over to the fountain and the kids were thrilled that the fountains light up in the evening!!

It was sure a fun time with them!!  The weather was gorgeous in Ft Collins and Jill already has flowers pushing through!  She fixed us a great lasagna dinner!!

 And Monday it was back home to continue work on the house!
