Oh So Close!

YAY!  Today we found out that the VA Appraisal came through!  There are no improvements the sellers have to make to the home, so we are on the home stretch (No Pun Intended)!  
Closing date is still set for June 1st!  

For all of you who know me tooooo well:  
Yes, I did come home and start packing!  I just can't help it!  Type A is just spilling out everywhere and I cannot control myself!!!  LOVE IT!

For all of you who know Addie tooooo well: 
Yes, she is glued to my leg.  She is wondering where in the world I am taking her AGAIN!  Poor thing.  World traveler since day 1!

Layla and Clint are good to go! :)

To catch everyone up on where we have been:

Friday May 4- Sunday May 6th: 
 Clint, Layla, Addie, and I went to Bella Vista to see my Mom for the weekend.  She loaded us up with lots of goodies for the new house!  She gave us her lawn mower, outdoor umbrella, bicycle, our 1st Christmas Tree, and a coffee table!  We are pumped!  We did a little hiking with the girls and took them to see a waterfall.  Mom got a new baby grand piano, so we gave Clint a performance and he had to join in at the end!  He found the music to a song from Smash, so we were set!

Friday May 11th- Sunday May 13th:  
Clint, Layla, Addie, and I went to Deville to see Clint's family.  We had a great time!  Our nieces are getting so big!  We went to our niece, Casey's, tee-wee ball game (She is 3) on Friday night! Saturday afternoon we had a family dinner with Mrs. Julie (Clint's Mom), Neicy (Clint's Grandmother), and Dustin & Chantel with their girls.  I went out to eat with Mrs. Cindy (Clint's Step-Mom), Dana (Clint's Sister), and Chantel (Clint's Sister) for Mrs. Cindy's 50th birthday and Mothers Day celebration! Very fun!

Everything is going great!  We are just excited beyond measures to get into the new house and to have everyone over to hang out!

Move in date is still set for Tuesday, July 3rd!  So, anyone who is able to help during the day on Tuesday, PLEASE let us know.  
We can use all the help we can get!

Prayers:
1. Dustin, Bro-In-Law, Dr.'s appointment for his numbness in his arm/bone spur over his nerves in neck is on May 22nd here in Shreveport.  Please pray for answers and prayers for healing.
2. Prayers for everything to go smoothly until we move into the house.
3. Prayers for my job and the stress it entails on a daily basis.
4. Prayers for Clint's neck; he has a chronic muscle strain.  Will start PT on Thursday.  Prayers for quick recovery and that he can learn ways to stretch and keep it AWAY!


Praises:
1. VA Appraisal came through smoothly!  Praise God!  So excited!!!!

As always, thanks for your prayers!  God is faithful!  Please let us know if we can pray for you and your family.  Love you all!
