Street Fair and Bubbles

A couple weekends ago (ok, more like a month ago - yes, I have been a bad, bad blogger lately! In my defense, we are trying to get the house ready to put on the market - maybe even next weekend - so I have been VERY busy!) Anyway, a couple weekends ago we went up to see Grant/Daddy in a street fair thing up in Wake Forest. He had a booth for his clinic along with lots of other local businesses and some of the local police/fire etc. We met Randy, Sara and Gracie up there, too.

Here are the girls checking out the ambulance:

Then they had to check out the fire truck:

And not to leave the police out, we stopped by their booth and got some goodies from them - including these handcuffs! The girls thought they we hilarious!

A couple weekends ago we went to Lenoir for the night and hung out at the Nelson house. Grant got to go fishing with his dad and Susan and I (with Olivia) got to do some much needed shopping for the little baby boy! Poor guy is going to be wearing Olivia's old pink stuff if I don't get on the ball! ha ha! We got him a bunch of really cute clothes and stuff. We still need lots more, but we got a good start!

Then last weekend, my parents came up to visit. Dad and our realtor, Nikki, helped us make a "to do" list to finish getting the house ready to put on the market. I have been working my tail off (sometimes overdoing it a bit!) working on it in my down time. We are getting really close! This weekend we are going to work some more and finish off our list and hope to be able to put it on the market by next weekend! Wish us luck!

We also went up to Wake Forest to check out a house that we saw come across our listing emails from Nikki that we thought was gorgeous! And it is!!! It is definitely at the top , of our budget, but we may be able to get a good deal on it in this economy. It has already been reduced once! Now we just need to get our house on the market and check out some other houses - just to make sure we have seen enough before we make any big decisions and we'll go from there!

Last weekend Grant took Olivia outside for a bit to blow some bubbles. She LOVES bubbles! Here are some pictures and videos from that:
