Let's Make a Deal

Isn't this a lovely bit of crochet?  I do love it!  Remember I taught Daughter 2 to crochet while she was home for Christmas?  She started making this ripple blankie.  She brought it home last week for Spring Break; she making so much progress.  The stitches are even and perfect.  The colors are wonderful.  I want to make a ripple, too....

So here's the house news.  A counter offer came back on Thursday.  In other words, our last offer was not accepted.  But we were getting closer.  Friday, my FIL had an arteriogram.  Friday Daughter 2 came home for Spring Break.  Saturday, Daughter 2 went back to school.  Finally on Sunday we sat down and went over all the numbers.  We decided to go back with one more counter offer.  Today we got the news:

We are under contract to buy the house!!!!!!!!!  Very excited, indeed.

But of course, it's still not a done deal.  We have to now focus on selling our current house.  We're ready to get serious with this.  I'd hate for it to fall through now!  We hope it will happen fast!
