Be careful what you say.......

In our preparations to move we crossed paths with our neighbor a few times and discussed the fact that one of our trees in our backyard was shading their garden and probably causing less than desired results in their harvest.
He had mentioned he'd like to trim it up to help free the way for the sun to reach their garden to which we responded "Do whatever you want" not thinking how serious that phrase can be.
Upon returning home a couple weeks later (after the fact that our house now is currently under contract) we saw our tree lying on its side in our backyard. We were a little shocked to say the least.
We must mention here that our neighbors are super nice and we've never had any problems from them in the past. We really don't care one bit that it was cut down, we're just worried that it would affect the sale of our house that was put under contract with the tree in back. So far it hasn't been an issue....... hopefully it won't be.

Big News


"After much thought and prayer we have decided to put our house on the market. This is such an exciting crazy time for us. Our house should officially be on the market today! Wow. We are very hopeful that things will continue to move quickly and that we will find something we love. There have been a flurry of emotions lately and we will be sad to move away from our great neighbors but, such is life I guess......."

Heidi wrote the above paragraph on Thursday, April 9th and our house had an offer on Saturday. After some brief countering, we reached a deal and are currently under contract.  Yippee!!!
