The Crew goes to London...

...Street that is. While we were in Omaha this weekend for a wedding and another zoo trip, we negotiated a deal on the Coves house! We were so excited! We are signing all the work tonight and scheduling the inspection tomorrow. We got it for about $4000 less than they were asking and they are paying closing costs. The best news, they agreed to let us take possession 2 days before we close so we can move all our stuff out of this one and avoid storage and a double move :) So God's timing really did all work to how we were hoping. Ashlyn and Joshua haven't got to go through this one yet so they are excited to go this week and walk through it. We did drive them to the neighborhood pool though which was a big hit of course! I will post a sideshow of pics after we go this week. It is tons bigger than the house we have now and it will be fun to get to know a new area of Kansas City we are not used to at all.

The one big con, we will have to change Caleb's speech instructor in July. We really love Miss Catherine and this will be a hard transition for both Caleb and me. But we are a little excited to see what the free Park Hill school district speech program has to offer in the fall. We will continue his class at Children's Mercy Hospital through the summer, which will now only be 5 minutes away! Thanks to all who prayed for us - what a blessing to have a bigger house closer to school and church and not end up spending a whole lot more of our monthly income :)

Oh, John is already getting tired of furniture ideas, paint colors, and the many "fun" things about moving (for me I guess)....we'll share those ideas as the transpose too. I am picturing a lot of Pottery Barn look-a-like decorating in this house! Pics to follow of the house and Omaha soon.....

GREAT NEWS!!! You will really enjoy the pool for the kids. I have loved having it for our family. I can't wait to see pics and all your decorating ideas. I am like you....I could move every few years just to redo a house, b/c I love decorating! But, it is also soooo much work, and the more kids the harder it gets! So happy for you all! Take care.
Hugs.
