that we have leased our house out to a Volkswagen ex-pat family from Germany for 3 years!! As long as Tarzan doesn't freak out and change his mind, looks like we have to empty out this entire house before September 1st. I've already enlisted my nephew Reed for help translating between German and English. I had him send me a text in German that said "Hi my name is Reed, I'm Kelly's nephew and I'll be happy to help you with whatever you need". When the couple was here yesterday for the second time this week I showed them the text. They were very happy to see that since their English isn't great. The other good news is that we have to build a deck, so if we move back here in 3 years I'll finally be able to sit out in our back yard on a flippin deck! Of course our new house to be in IL already has a deck.
Stay tuned. Tarzan is supposed to be reviewing the lease.

Well that is great news for you guys!!!! (Not so good for me since you'll be leaving the area)
It's nice that you'll have a nice family living there. My mom watches a lot of children of German families (she does daycare, not sure if you remembered that). They have always been soooo nice! It's also nice that you will get your house back when they leave in case you guys want to come back!
So happy for you guys that things are moving along!
And I know I'll still see you every now and then! You, Emily and I will have to have a weekend meet-up in Chicago!
Hugs!

Glad things appear to be moving along - the house thing can be so stressful!
3 years is such a long time....we will miss you!!! Congratulations on the good news and I hope it all works out for you :-)
