Getting Ready

...for an open house this Sunday.

May the next owner of this house be someone who comes through Sunday!

Let's Go!



Case tests out the massive engine on his new pick-up truck. "Mmm, good traction, nice gear ratio....glad I went with the 3/4 ton."

Camp Week


On Sunday, we dropped Haley and Moriah off at camp for the week. Here is a group shot of their cabin-mates. They apparently have 2 counselors (far left, and far right).

Brooke got to spend some time with a friend from Florida on Monday. She invited another friend - a soccer pal - over for swimming and an overnight. She had tennis this morning. This afternoon, she's feeling a little lonely.

No movement regarding the house yet. Depending on whom you talk you, the real estate market is either in a slump or is doing very well. I'm still trying to remain optimistic....especially since we have placed an offer on our next home (contingency, of course). Surely someone wants a house this big with tons of character??

Now that's the biggest ant I've ever seen!

Brooke apparently likes digging in the ginormous pile of sand at Grandma & Grandpa's!

Vroom Vroom!


Case's first time in a car cart at Best Buy. He liked it!

Tennis, Anyone?

Tennis Clinics are going well for everyone...including Case! He's spending about 30 minutes every other day chasing a ball and holding a racquet.

We Have Signed

...a contract for the services of a Realtor.

I hope they have connections (i.e. a Buyer).

We are now listed on the mls site: www.muscatinemls.com and you can put in the street name search field "Mulberry" and there we are...1420 Mulberry...the giant Victorian.

Now the hard part...waiting....oh yeah, we've been doing that for 2 months already.

Waiting some more...
