My brother Bryant received his mission call to Eugene Oregon. Were so excited for him and the great experiences that await. Also my parents decided to start a blog, I think my Dad just wanted to get back at Catherine for a picture we had that teased him about the similarities between him and our son Neil.
Life has been crazy busy. Our house is in shambles as we pack and try and get ready for the move. Catherine has been much better at packing then me. I get side tracked going through stuff, oh here is a picture from high school, hey here is my mission journal... next thing I know its time for bed and I haven't put together a single box.
We have been searching for a new home and also preparing to speak in church I'm supper nervous about leaving our home and finding a new home. Catherine is more nervous about speaking in church.
Our experiences with house hunting have been a little dismal and left us with a bad impression of real estate agents. One night we went out and the first agent dogged us. The next agent showed up at a home in the wrong city and the third agent forgot his key to get into the home.
Despite these bad experiences we found an agent that handles lots of shortsales. We feel we might be able to get a good deal by purchasing a short sale. The agent was listing a property we wanted so when we went to put an offer on it he got us to sign a contract and use him as our agent. Hopefully this will be of benefit. Without an agent its real hard knowing which homes are short sales.
