The only real emergency is that here it is, afternoon of May 31, and I haven't had a post yet this month. :-P
This morning Teresa and I closed on our first house, which is obviously exciting. The process went fairly quickly, about 3 weeks from the time we looked at it until closing.
Here's an album with all of the photos we took while looking at houses - photos from the house we bought are right at the beginning, starting with the first picture and finishing with the picture of dogs in the backyard. The only visible change that will be made from the pictures is that the pink room will be painted white.
The now-previous owners needed to rent it back from us for about a week, so we should have keys a week from Sunday!
