Accepted Offer!!!

We now have an accepted offer!
It was the people that were from Port Washington. They brought their parents through on Saturday and immediately made the offer. We now have 2 weeks to move out, because Duner has surgery on November 1st and won't be able to move after that (for 4-6 weeks). We officially close on November 14th. Even though we have an accepted offer on the house we still carried on with the open house today. We just found out this am that buyers accepted our counter offer.
We will be moving to Oshkosh in a duplex that will be owned soon by Cory and Shannon (Duners brother and sister-in-law). She is pregnant and due in early April. They both love kids and are looking forward to their very own soon. She actually works at the local Boys and Girls Club. She is great with kids. They will be great parents.
They have now started to dig our home. Here is the sewer line.... OHHHHH.... AHHHHHH. Yep I know your impressed. I talked with our project manager on Friday and he said in 2 weeks they should have a frame up, or at the very least going up. They are hoping to be done by December 31, my golden birthday, but we are not holding them up to that. We know it will probably be more like mid January.

We have chosen a pretty greenish/grey for the siding. It is called Cactus. I did not want tan (which is everyother home in that subdivision), yellow, blue, or white. So that doesn't leave too much else. We are going with white windows, soffit and facia. The shutter colors and the roof are still up in the air. We are thinking of a midnight green for the shutters, but I don't want to over do the green theme with a green roof. I didn't realize just how much Duner likes green. I think he has spent a little too much time up in the tree stand.

We I have a moving checklist I need to start working on....
Untill next time...

While I still think you are crazy for moving twice, I do agree with you that Duner has spent too much time in his treestand for picking so much green. Try a dark brown or mocha for the roof. Or, if you are unsure, Dad was a printer for 30 years, and he is really good with colors. He'd probably like to offer his opinion, although he might not like it if if you didn't take his advice.
