Stellar Seller

Gracie's first award ceremony was Sunday afternoon at the Girl Scouts Building here in Nashville. Gracie recevied a medal and certificate for selling 1000 boxes of cookies. After the ceremony, she received her new Ipod and patch. She also got a cupcake and cookies...what every girl needs!

We are still working on the new house. We now have a new fridge and bedroom furniture. We will begin moving Gracie's furniture in the next couple of weeks. We are finishing the trim and kitchen cabinets, and then the painting will be completed for awhile. We are very excited about living there. We are also very tired from going back and forth. It is beginning to take its toll on all of us. Hopefully, the next few weeks will fly by.

Finally...

It's official. We are homeowners again. We closed on our new house last week. We immediately began working on the house. We spent Thursday through Monday painting, having carpets cleaned, and doing other "homeowner" tasks. We started with Gracie's new room. It took two full days of work to get it done, but it is finally complete. It looks fabulous..if I do say so. We have lots of big plans for the new place, but our main concern is getting everything in and settled. We will be completely moved by the end of May.

Gracie will have her first Stellar Seller award event this coming weekend. She is so excited. She has been really stressed over testing at school, so I am glad that there are some really great things to look forward to for her.
