Pending Sale...

Yes, it is true. We have a pending sale on our house. Praise the Lord! (Insert Hallalujah chours here.) I am so excited to not have to show our house any more! All that keeping the house spotlessly clean and being ready to pack up 2 boys and 3 babies and leave on a moment's notice for the last 5 weeks, has worn me out! Now we get the "relaxing" job of packing all our worldly posessions into boxes and getting ready to re-roof the house begins.

Here's our timeline for anyone who's interested..I'll just give the highlights:

Today- September 27th Pack
August 23 Girls' first birthday- will post more about this later
August 24-25 Babysit overnight for my friend Carrington who has brand new triplets.
August 26 Girls' birthday party
September 1-2 Probably re-roofing the house?
September 5 School starts..right? I will have to cart Bryce back and forth from school until we move.
September 17th Close on our Cleveland house
September 19th Close and take possession of the house in Corbett
September 19-22 Scrub the Corbett house from top to bottom...you have no idea!, rip out carpet/flooring and lay new laminate floor
September 22-23 Beg our friends and family to help us move as much as we can get done over the weekend
September 27 Last day in our old house..new owners take possession

I'm sure there are other things to consider and do in the next month especially..but these are all I can think of at the moment. If there's anyone out there who is willing/able to help with anything..packing, cleaning, painting, roofing, laying laminate floor...please let me know..the work load is overwhelming as anyone who comes out to the Corbett house will be able to see! We covet any time you will be able to donate! Especially the days between the 19-23rd of September.

    I know someone who would love to help you. You have taken meals to that family, since you have had triplets, and I'm sure they would help out. All you have to do is ask, early, and I will blot out the time, so that I can help. The other is, you have to figure out who you have helped in the last year, and would be willing to help you. Good Luck I won't let you suffer to long, maybe until Oct. Just kidding.
