Moving Right Along

So things are moving right along for us. We got approved for the loan, so we are all set to make an offer on a house whenever we want to now. Yesterday we drove around Fullerton and Anaheim and were pretty unimpressed. Just not enough going on around there to justify the prices. We still need to check out Long Beach. Kevin went back up to Pasadena to check out the house we really liked last week and got some more information on the neighborhood and area. We've contacted our real estate agent (who conveniently happens to be in the family) and he's gathering info on what comparable houses go for and will make an appointment with the agent to see the house again and evaluate it. We all think it's way overpriced so we'll have to see what happens. It's all been very informative.

Two days ago was my dad's birthday (happy belated birthday, Pop!)--and the day before that was my brother's birthday (happy belated birthday, Brad!). Our good friends Marc and Wendy came over after dinner--they live in Denver but were visiting Wendy's folks who conveniently live quite close to mine. It was great to see them again. Yesterday while we were traveling through The OC we stopped by Kevin's grandparents and had dinner with them. My folks are out of town for the weekend and Tuesday Kevin and I are going up to the bay area for a couple of days, so it's a little bit crazy around here. Scout doesn't quite know what to think.
