******************************************************************************Ryan, Owen, and I just got back from a much needed vacation to New Orleans. Our friend, Todd, got married to a wonderful girl, Kim, and they asked Ryan to be apart of their special day as a groomsman. Ryan's parents got our flight for a Christmas present, and we used our Marriot reward points for the hotels, so it was fairly cheap vacation as well :) always nice. Since we had Owen, we did not do anything TOO crazy, but we did get to enjoy Bourbon Street (during the day!), walked around the city and went on a cemetery tour (appropriate given what my husband does for a living:) ) Todd's wedding was in Baton Rouge, so we rented a car and went up there for a couple days. The most amazing thing we did was JUST BE TOGETHER. We all take for granted the small things like this like just have a place to ourselves, but now that we are living with family, you miss that alone time you once had to just kinda do your own thing. Don't get me wrong, I love our family, and feel so grateful they are letting us stay with them... but I just miss our home together and our own things....
And we THOUGHT for a second that our prayers were answered b/c the last day of our trip, our realtor called and said we got an offer!! It was a low-ball offer, but at last, a true offer! So we countered back and forth that whole day, and finally came to an agreement, ALOT lower than we wanted, but we were just happy to be done with this!!! So we flew home and signed the paper, and faxed them back to our realtor. The next day....She called and said the buyers are having second thoughts....so long story short...THEY PULLED OUT of the offer and our house is still up for sale going on 5 1/2 months :( :(
So to be honest, I am just so stressed out with this whole situation. I never thought we would still be doing this all for this long....I really really do try and stay positive but it has been so hard, and I am so fearful we are going to lose so much our hard earned money that we saved or worst, lose ALL of it!

So I would really appreciate some extra prayers from you all for our house to sell soon at a decent price so we can just start over our life here in Indy.
