Wowsa. Long time no blog! Time flies...!

Let's see. We've been busy, I guess. :)

1. We found a house to buy. YAY! We're suppose to close on June 8. I say "suppose to" because we hadn't locked our interest rate yet, and they took a pretty big leap on Thursday of last week. We're really really really hoping they come back down, even a little bit. Where they're at now the payment is just out of reach. We desperately need a little dip to make it work. This week will be key...

2. Caitlin's back at the bat. She's doing really well this year and is one of the team's main pitchers. Her team, however, is not doing too well. Of the 12 girls, 7 of them had never played before this year. The other 5 were Cait's teammates last year when they won the league, so they've been a little disappointed, but their spirits are still up there. Cait does a great job-she's a good leader and role model for the young'ns. And we just bought her a new bat on E-Bay a few weeks ago. We got a steal of a deal-a $180 bat for $50! Brand new-sweet! :)

3. Jason is starting a new job on June 11. It's closer to home (he is currently driving 25 mi. one way) and the pay is more. This should work out good. When (if) we move, he'll be about 7 miles away on the new super-highway.

4. The MN Twins beat the Chi White Sox today...woo hoo! Oh how I wish we were at that game! We thought about going and getting cheap seats, but even the "cheap" seats add up with this fee and that fee, and with the price of gas we thought it best to stay home. Luckily WGN carried the game today.

5. Last night we went to our friends' house for dinner. Kurt was Jason's best man, and Emma was our flower girl. Kurt and Jackie are great people, and she's a superb cook! They have 3 super cute kids, too. :) After dinner we visited outside on their patio (the weather was beautiful) and then played a Friends trivia game. They were huge Friends fans when the series was still on T.V., and we have since purchased the first seven seasons, so we were pretty tough competitors. It was fun-Kurt won though. :(

6. That's it for the more recent past. We're hoping for a pretty exciting next couple of weeks...I'd like to come back here soon with pics of the new house. :)

Take care all!
