Fieldtrips and dreams..

This is Alissa and Jon with their buddies.. went on a field trip to Roth's with Alissa's class. It was a hoot! Alissa and Jon got to make and decorate their own cupcakes and pizza. They got to tour the giant refrigerator and discuss apples. It was a great time.

On the dreams...
Matt and I found the perfect house. It is HUGE and beautiful... two story 3000 squ ft with a play room and office and three bedroom. The owner is desperate and going into foreclosure so lowered the price 75k!! But alas, with everything going as it is going with the economy I doubt we are going to be able to get a loan. It is really kind of depressing to have this unbelievable deal and a house I could finally be comfortable in and proud of at our fingertips but the ever important money issue stands in our way. The family across the street is even friends of ours! It would be just perfect, next to a park.. I am 90% sure we will not get the loan, but it is so hard not to dream the what-ifs you know? So we will try, and try not to be too bummed if we don't get to move in. Did I mention there is even a 50's front porch? With the little fence.. it is SCREAMING for a rocking chair and lots of lazy evenings chatting with neighbors sipping lemonade. Sigh..

The fieldtrip sounded like a lot of fun!

And it is always wonderful to have dreams, it's what makes life great! So dream away, and with lots of prayers and wishes of good luck from all of us...we hope you get it. If it is meant to be then it will happen!!

We miss you guys...I wish you were going to be at Hailey's tea party on Saturday...it would be awesome if we could do stuff like that together all the time!!
