As for the Dubuque side, we put an offer on a house Friday night only to have our offer shot down and the owner said they would not go lower. So, we tried to not think about it over the weekend and decided to go back to the drawing board at the beginning of this week. Monday morning when Chris was in Dubuque, he received a call from our realtor who said those owners decided to take our offer! I'm super glad now that we didn't go higher with our offer over the weekend. It is a house in Asbury that does not have a finished basement. We have accumulated too much stuff to not have a finished basement, so we are meeting with a builder tomorrow morning to go over some plans and hope to have it done by March 1st. Our closing date is March 6th, but we are hoping to move it up a bit.
I'm very relieved to have our house sold and feel very lucky in today's market. It will be so much easier on me to not have to get the house ready for showings each day. I will keep you updated! Here's a picture of Max and Mya one day last week when it got above 30 degrees:)

CONGRATS! What a blessing to have your house sold, and a new one to move into already. Cute picture of the kids! :)Kelly
Yeah Hodens! We will miss you in the Cedar Falls area, but wish you well. Let's try to plan a lady's night soon before you leave. Let me know if some weeknight, Friday night, or Saturday night work!
The Evens!
Congrats on selling your house so ridiculously fast. What an awesome feeling to have that out of the way and congrats on the new house as well.-Kel
Congrats on the house, man that Chris knows how to play hardball, he probably picked up a thing or two from me over the years.
What a relief to have the selling and buying over. I'm sure it was a weekend you don't want to relive. I'm sure there are a million things on your list of things to do... make sure you find time to breathe.
