Life Experiences

Today the kids and I ran more errands than we usually run in a week! We went through a potential rental house yesterday and decided to make an offer. I have the most flexible schedule, so the kids and I set out to get a proof of funds (req'd for most cash offers), a cashier's check, and sign the contract. We got it in, then Aunt Alli and Beau came over to play. Barkley and Beau had a great time, and everyone enjoyed homemade cheese pizza for lunch (Friday in Lent). Afterwards I had to go back up to the realtor offices to put in our "best and final" offer and sign a sheet acknowledging that other offers might be submitted. It's a Fannie/Freddie property. Anyway, Lexi and I got that done while Mitch and Rafe napped and Addy and Gabi played. Now I'm making Lentil Tacos http://allrecipes.com/recipe/tasty-lentil-tacos/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=lentil+tacos&e8=Quick+Search&event10=1&e7=Home+Page for a Lenten Meal tonight during our book club! We're discussing Outliers, although I've finished 1.5 books since finishing that one (Mockingjay and A Big Little Life). After mom gets off work we are running through the models in the development we're hoping to build in, and then going to First Friday Mass at Mag. One of my goals for the year is to go to Mass on every First Friday/Saturday of the year. This has been a super long runon paragraph, but I wanted to write down about the kids going to sign the contract with me. It was their first time in the business world I guess. They did good--even if Gabi was still in pajamas. I was hoping we wouldn't have to go in! :D
