It's on the market!

I can't believe that it's finally here. I've been preparing for this day for so long, and it's finally here. Wish us luck!

I'm going to try not to kill my family while we all struggle to keep the house clean. So far, it's been good, but I'm sure that it will get old fast!

Bret only has 119 days left! Yippee!

Our New Dog?

Connor, Maren, Berkley and Brendan


The kids and I have started the discussion of getting a dog. This is in anticipation of moving to Duluth and having a large piece of land to let the dog run and also provide some warning/safety for the kids with the wilderness being right there.

Every dog Maren sees becomes the kind that she wants to get. She's convinced that we should get a puppy (although Mom isn't so sure). Connor and Brendan, of course, want to get a boy dog. But Mom is convinced that a girl dog will be calmer, so that will prevail.

Connor's teacher recently got a new puppy and brought it to school. As soon as I told Maren, she had to see it. The teacher was generous enough to bring Berkley back to school just for my kids to see. Maren was the most into him, but Connor and Brendan tried to keep up. I was just afraid that they were going to step on him.

Three Kids in Hockey!




Bret convinced me to sign all three kids up for hockey this year. Connor helped enormously by selling pizzas to help mom and dad out.


We've had the painters here painting inside to clean up all of the hockey dings in the walls. The carpets are getting cleaned next week. I hope to get this bad boy on the market by the end of the month. We only have 5 more months here, yikes!
