TGIF! Can you believe this is the last weekend in April? Time really is flying. Let's take a look at some faves from this week.

ONE
In house news, we are closing on our new house TODAY! We will have a final walk through and then close at the title office. It is slightly anti-climactic since the sellers are leasing back for a month. So we are officially landlords until the end of May. We will miss the big trees in our current neighborhood, but it will be nice to be in a newer house and neighborhood.
We received several offers after the open house weekend at our current house, and we have a contract right now pending inspections. Hopefully, all will go smoothly from now until a June closing date.

This canine pal has been a real trooper as we have been out of the house so much for showings and the open houses. Today I took him out for walks and park time for about 5 hours for the home inspection. We were both tired when we got home! This picture is from earlier in the week when he was waiting patiently for me to put his bowls back out after a showing.
THREE
Both kids are wrapping up their college years with final exams. Jack stopped at the new Buccee's in Auburn for a study snack and sent us a picture with the Happy Jack float. We can't wait to see both of them next week as we move out and drive home.
FOUR
WATCHING - Along with American Idol, we have been watching Will Trent (on ABC or Hulu). It is a quirky detective show that we're really enjoying.
FIVE
READING - I just finished Locust Lane, a mystery about New England rich people behaving badly. It was a 4-star book for me that kept me interested until the very end.
SIX
Have you every tried these French Hair Pins? I saw some Instagram videos showing them with a bun or twist. I'm going to give them a try.
SEVEN
REMEMBERING WHEN - the kids and I spent a day taking pictures in the bluebells in England. Michael had already moved back to Texas for work, and we took a day trip to Cliveden to see the beautiful flowers.
On the Blog this Week
Come back on Monday for Prime Purchases!
Have a wonderful weekend!
We will be celebrating our closing with a special lunch and then going to see a play on Saturday.
Then maybe it will be time to start packing!

You have a lot of exciting things coming up! A new house and kids coming home :) Two great blessings, for sure. And isn't having to leave the house for showings so exhausting? 5 hours with a dog is a long time!
