So much time has past and so many things have happened and are happening, that I will just quickly give you an brief update on the Jarrell news and post some pictures.
First of all it's cold. It has been cold and it still kind of is cold and we are tired of it. That's not news, but it had to be "said".
Then, we have been having a blast with Kim and Leslie here. They arrived on April 1st and unfortunately leave us tomorrow. K & L are my parents neighbors daughters (2 separate neighbors). The girls, as I refer to them, are sweet, helpful and a joy to have around. We've been to Chattanooga, Jack Daniels Distillery, a baseball game, bowling, lots of shopping and they have been over at Kaitlyn's some too, which they all enjoyed thoroughly.
Jay and I have finally somehow managed to find a house we both like and could agree on. It has taken so long and I was getting really frustrated with the whole process. We are signing the papers on May 5th, moving (with helpers) on May 9th and the kids and I are leaving for Germany on May 12th. It'll be a little hectic, but I am happy it's all happening before our trip. That way I will be able to enjoy my time more, knowing the hassle of house hunting is over. All in all things couldn't really have worked out much better or even any better. I'll post pics of the house at a later point (when I get a chance to, which might be sometime in the summer, when I'm back from Good Old Germany).
That's it!
