It's always something

Last week got a little stressful with the housing situation when we found the sellers hadn't been entirely honest about the existence of two parking places. There is, in fact, only one spot but room to park two cars. Downtown parking is priceless when you own your home. We're talking uncovered parking lots that have spots renting for over $125 monthly. After some renegotiation, we came to a new deal and closing is still on for this Thursday.

It was a little more excitment than we would have liked, but it's all going to work out. This weekend was Bryce's sister's 33rd birthday. She throws a big BBQ each year (with tofu hot dogs and burgers as Mo is a vegetarian) and we cruised over Saturday night for the big party. It was a blast with lots of family and friends and we ended up staying and talking until after midnight.

Yesterday was an extravaganza of furniture shopping and we found a dining room table at Crate and Barrel that was on sale as the floor sample. It's big enough to seat 10 so I'm seeing a lot of dinner parties in the future.

Hope you're all looking forward to a great week!

Happy Monday

  1. Oh, the joys of buying a house. We had the same issue just water problems (aka our basement floods) :) Gotta love dishonesty. Glad you all were able to renegotiate. Upload pics as soon as you can of the new place, can't wait to see it!
