The Latest......



Seems we always have something in the works around here! The newest thing is the big FOR SALE sign in our front yard!! O.M.G. Who would have thought?!
We love our house and we are really going to miss it, our yard and our neighbors, but we are feeling the need for a little more space and more property. At the same time, mom & George's house has become overwhelming. It's so big for the two of them, the stairs are hard on them both, as well as the upkeep. So, the next step is to get their house on the market after we sort through 30 years of "stuff" ! :)
We found a beautiful new development in Walkill. It's a circle with 19 lots. Most of them are 1-2 acres, with the exception of two in the back which are 20 and 15 acres. We fell in love with the 15 acre lot (Lot #8). The house will sit back with a longer driveway and the property has a stream that runs through it. I just love it out there.
We just listed our house yesterday and I got a phone call this morning from the realtor that someone wanted to look at it today from 1-2PM. Yikes! I had a Tastefully Simple party here scheduled for 3PM, hadn't showered yet and needed to get some last minute things done around here! Needless to say, today was a blur!
Miss Mei is sick. She has a nasty cough and a fever. We didn't sleep much last night and I have a feeling that tonight will be a repeat. My poor little monkey. :(
Soph is doing great. Having an awesome school year and she loves her tennis lessons.
Mom had uterine cancer and had a complete hysterectomy on Tuesday. The surgery went extremely well and they got everything very early. They didn't need to remove any lymph nodes and no radiation or chemo will be necessary. She came home yesterday and has a 6-8 week recovery ahead of her.
Above is a pick of what should be our future "hood"!!
Love to all,
Jenni

Sounds great, seems like a lovely area.
The stairs in our raised ranch is getting to both Sher and I and the upkeep, this week we are putting on a new roof.
Glad mom is doing OK, give her our best.
