Once again I have fallen behind the curve ball....been super busy with life in general. News on the homefront.....we are looking for a house to buy. We were not going to buy in Alabama since we don't know how long we are going to be here, but since we are on a month to month lease now, the property mgmt company raised our rent almost $100 a month and the house is pretty crappy so we decided we would try to buy before the end of April to get the $8,000 tax credit. We put in an offer on one house Monday but the seller came back with a full price counter - not exactly a counter offer in my opinion. But yesterday we found (well I found since Donnie is out of town) a house and I am going to put in an offer this afternoon. I sent some pics to Donnie but he hasn't seen it in person. Hopefully he trusts me. It was not even listed yet. Our realtor is their realtor so she wasn't listing it until this morning. Hopefully they will accept it since they already bought another property and they have to move soon. Kinda exciting.....will keep you posted.

Donnie is almost done with another 2 classes. Only 7 more til he graduates. Unfortunately he has to take some quantitative reasoning course. I looked up the description and it is math, algebra, functions, statistics, etc. UGH!! Unfortunately math is neither of our strong suits so we will have to put some effort in this together. Other than that, we are both trucking along in school.

Jackson is getting so big. I am putting some new pics on FB this weekend from easter. Hard to believe he is going to be 5 months at the end of the month. Time flies. Well I am at work so I should probably go work.
