I'm not sure where the boxes went that I packed... or even if we still own them. And really, at this point -- they should just go directly to Goodwill... but I'm so happy I could (try to) do a cartwheel! Lily on the other hand is a little less happy... this the only place she's ever lived. And no matter how many kids we're going to live by, how much nicer the new house will be... this is her home.

Our first open house is this Saturday. *nothing like going on the market on Wednesday, showing on Saturday* and we talked about lead time on a showing... since I've never owned a home before this, I had no idea what the 'standard' request for an owner to vacate the property for a showing would be, but I was hoping for 30 minutes.
