To make a long story short, we didn’t close on the house this weekend because we hate our lenders.  Wait.  Hate’s a strong word.  And we don’t like to bite the hands that feed us.  But yes, they’re not our favorite people.   Very non-communicative.  We feel like we’re pulling teeth to get information out of them.  Anyway, we’re fairly confident it will be sorted out by the end of this week.  The underwrite wants guarantees that certain repairs will be made within a month or so of buying the house.  read more »

Then, he enjoyed it so much we hid the eggs again. Oh, and Thomas had a blast coloring eggs Saturday night as well.

Since a service project was the next morning, we went camping at the church owned campground. There were several other families from the ward there.
