Apparently there are some couples still trying to decide which house to purchase (and ours is in the running). Wish they'd hurry up and decide, but until then, I keep reminding myself that it hasn't even been two weeks yet, so I will be patient. The right person for our home is out there, and they will find it.
We close on our new house this Friday, but probably won't get access to it until next week. We don't plan to move in until July though, as we have several commitments before then.
In the meantime, we have had to get creative during showings. We've eaten out a lot, gone to the park a time or two, crashed at several of our friends' houses, and even spied on our house from across the street to see who is checking out our house.
Most of the time we have several hours notice, but we've had a couple where they wanted to come by within 30 minutes. Luckily, we have a nice, quick routine that gets our house in ship-shape order right before showings. It helps that almost all of our extra clutter is tucked away nicely in the storage unit we got a couple weeks ago.
We had another showing tonight, so we chilled up at John's folks place for dinner. The girls had fun making brownies with Aunt Tammy, though Natalie wasn't feeling very photogenic :)
On Saturday, we had two showings, one that just happened to be during the time I had to do a story in Layton, so we went as a brood and John took them around checking out these lovelies while I did my interviews. (photos courtesy of Kimberly)
I'm told Alicia liked this one...
...and this one too.
Apparently she's the new classic car buff in the family.
Here's to hoping an offer comes through sometime soon. Cleaning up every minute detail in the house at a moment's notice is getting old :)

I remember how annoying it was to always have to keep the house clean. Good luck!
