Ramblings at the End of Another Week

We're down to the last few days--eight to be exact. I took my choir to Sandy Lake on Wednesday. They sang well and received a 1st Division rating. So now, I'm really on the downhill slide. They're supposed to sing for the 4th and 5th grade awards assemblies, but beyond that...I'm done! Woo hoo! Sandy Lake went well except for the two kids who threw up. What's up with that? I've never had that happen before. At least their chaperones had to deal with it and not me. :-)

We looked at houses on Wednesday and we're going again tomorrow to look at another one. I wish we could afford what we really want, but we'll have to settle for what we can afford and what we need. Found one that has good potential. It's empty, so it shouldn't be a problem to paint and fix up before we move in. We'll just have to see. I'm excited about seeing the one tomorrow. It backs up to the lake which would be great for Richard and the boys especially. It's a little bit more than we really wanted to pay, but we'll just have to wait and see. It's such a huge decision. We don't want to settle, but I don't want to be "house-poor" either. Eh...we've got some time. We'll keep looking and praying and see where the right place is. I know it's out there.

Pick the one that backs up to the lake! It's the life you want! {Or at least it always looks like the life you want on tv!} Hope you find a great house!

Oh, I wish. We looked at it today. It just wasn't for us unfortunately. Teeny-tiny bedrooms and odd layout that just didn't work. Pretty...but not for a family of boys. Waaah.
