Back in the Saddle again..

So it has definitely been awhile since I have updated our online life. We have been in Idaho for the past 2 weeks and just got home on Thursday. We went back and helped harvest sugar beets with Clay's family. It was a fun trip but it was good to get home also. So now it is back to the ol' bump and grind of life. Clay is working his hardest to sell, sell, sell. If only the farmers would buy, buy, buy. Ha ha just kidding. Well it would be nice. We have some exciting news though. Before we left for Idaho we had been looking at some houses and couldn't decide what we wanted to do. So I told Clay let's just go to Idaho and see how things pan out when we get back. Let things rest a little. We got to Idaho and the next day our relator calls us and told us that the first house we put an offer on the girl decided to accept it. Totally didn't see that one coming. So we were really excited about that but then we started talking on the way home and we decided we would talk to our apartments to see how hard it would be and the risk we would be taking to try and find someone to take over our lease. So we got back and talked with them and it didn't sound to promising without us losing money so we decided to not go with the house and possibly build one. Well our decision is made and we are building a house!!!! Yeah!! So exciting. So watch out Orchard Park here come the Allen's!! We are building a 1400 sq ft home over in Kennewick, just across the river from here. It works out perfect for our lease and everything. We got to pick out colors on Saturday and that was fun but kind of scary at the same time cause you just have little samples to pick things out with and I almost need the whole picture to see it but I think what we picked will be nice and just right for us. So anyways... That is our good news for this week.
