FINALLY

I know we all have those "finally" culminations of things in our lives.  Something you've waited, and waited, and waited for. 

Our family has just experienced a "finally"!!!!  Marc's Tulsa house has been on the market for 21 months, yes 21 months, (making house payments on it plus renting an apartment for all those months so Aric could attend school in Owasso) and 3, yes 3, contracts (2 fell through at the last minute) but it finally closed Wednesday afternoon, November 23rd.

 1 hour later he FINALLY closed on this beautiful new home in Owasso. Let me tell you, Wednesday was one happy day for all of us. 
 This was taken several months ago, while the 4 of us were having brunch, after Marc had taken Mickey & I to look at the beautiful new home he was going to make an offer on.
 This was taken a few days later, when we were over at the Tulsa home moving some more things and he was getting a counter offer on the new home.
 Mickey (dad) sitting across the table from him with pure joy as he watches Marc calculating all the costs and figures!!!
The Tulsa house that Marc owned for 11 1/2 years.

Mickey & I are meeting Marc, Aric and the movers at 9 a.m. in the morning and all their furniture will be moved from the storage building (where most of it has lived for 21 months) and the apartment into the new house. 

Yes, the whole family celebrated Thanksgiving today rejoicing over this FINALLY and looking with much anticipation to the future for these 2 special people in our lives.

You will be seeing a LOT of pictures of this lovely new home.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy FINALLY!!!!

What a wonderful relief to Marc and Aric (and you) Praying they will settle really quickly and it will feel like "home" straight away. What excitement.

So nice! When we were college students, we used to spend holidays with a family in Tulsa.
