Pins and Needles

While I was enjoying a weekend roadtrip to and crop in Odessa, Corey has been negotiating offers on a new house. We were $5,000 apart this morning and if they will split the difference, we'll have a contract pending on a new home!!!!

Odessa was great. :D My friend Denise (KelleBelle to most of y'all) and her DH were a wonderful hosts, and her boys are just precious. Little flirts, they are. As a thank-you-for-letting-us-stay-with-you I scrapped their third birthday party. Unfortunately, I didn't take hardly any photos and will have none to share until Vicki and Denise share some with me. :D

Vicki and I also got to visit with Jill, whom we met at the first Texas Crop. She just got back from Israel and I meant to take a gander at the pages she was working on of their trip and then never did. Bad me. Karen couldn't make it to the crop Saturday, but stopped by Denise's yesterday for a quick visit.

On the way out to Odessa Friday, Vicki humored me by letting me take a detour to the little town where my mom went to High School and where my grand parents and great-grandparents and great aunts and uncles are buried. Mom had just put the white flowers on the graves last May.
