As you know, a few months ago we moved ‘cause we were in a bad house and the electric bills were like $600, the place was broken in to [and our stuff stolen], the truck was broken in to and the landlord was a serious cheap-skate.
So we moved to Frisco. We move in and we find out the guy might be interested in selling the house; it seemed like it might be a good deal [going for a short-sale], but there were a few things that needed to be addressed, but we could wait a bit to see if the sale would go through- it didn’t.
We were already approved to buy the house [any house], so we decided not to buy our current one, but another. It’s nice. It’s in Little Elm and we should be moving in Aug 28th.
We’ve been to see the property a few times; it looks nice. It’s 4bd, 2.5 bath…
It has a bigger backyard than the other houses. Ethan should have plenty of room to go out and play- it’s even got a playhouse/playground with the slide, latter, swings, etc. We back up to a ‘greenway’, so there’s actually nothing right up against us. From the pictures, you can see the houses are not close to ours [from the back].
This was a big selling point on the house; the porch.It’s huge, it’s covered and it’s going to be nice to go out back and just relax.
I really don’t like the name, but’ve been hearing it on the HGTV channel, but we have a ‘man room’ already built in. The house has two levels, but upstairs it has a projector and [like] a 12’ screen; for which I fully intend on standing in front of and playing virtual golf.
Should be awesome with games and movies.
We really didn’t want to move, but was a good deal and we were already preapproved and it’s within our budget. It’s close to water, Wal-mart [which is always important to Becky] and Lowes [which is going to be important to me because of Becky]. It should be a nice change.
I know my dad doesn’t even have a address book entry for me anymore… I [we] are just a lonely post-it note on his desk with my address and phone number.I’m like the family ‘Where’s Waldo’ [sorry dad].
I haven’t told anyone about this yet because I wanted to wait until things were really underway and looking like it was going to happen, but we are two weeks out and there’s been no issues to this point.
So, I’ll update’ya in 2 weeks.
Until next time,

Ethan has been busy mastering his new WII [white game]- WII Resort. He loves beating daddy in all his games and when I win he’s wondering why I didn’t let him win.. and sometimes I just do.
