Nothing Yet

Alright, folks,

There is no news on Mercer yet. I called the grad school yesterday, and one of the key players in making decisions is out of the office until Monday. So, hopefully, I will hear something while I'm on Spring Break. Hope you guys in Houston Co. enjoyed yours!

We got the House!

Woo-Hoo! We are so excited! Some details:
Good neighborhood not far from Northside High School
3 Br/ 1 Ba
900 Sq. Ft.
Nice yard
Landscaping optional (a small monthly fee, but I will do everything I can to convince Jeanette that it's a good idea)
Very nice housing manager
Carrol St. (for safety, we won't put the actual address, so you'll have to just ask us)

It's a bit on the small side (especially the bedrooms) but it more than makes up for it in other areas. Now here are some pics:



The front of the house







The backyard







Hey! We actually have a kitchen!









The dining area










The living room









The bathroom









The master bedroom from the corner








The master bedroom from the door
And just so you know, yes, I'm standing in the center on both pictures









We may not have a pool, but we have an ice cream truck. I can't wait till the summer now.







Pulling up the Rent sign. It's ours now!





We plan to start moving in on the 25th. The 26th (Saturday) we will be hosting a "How much can your truck haul and can you carry" contest, so be prepared.
