BOTH HOUSES UNDER CONTRACT AND HANGING OF THE GREENS SERVICE

Up to get the chores done and get ready for church. Today is a spaghetti lunch so all we need to do this morning is brown the ground chuck and get the sauce in the crock pot.
We got ready and left a little early so we could make a stop at Dollar General for some Texas toast to go with the spaghetti.
We had nursery duty at church today and took care of 3 little girls 2 and under. G-daughter RL was one of them and also #1 son helped so it was 3 on 3 and was an easy nursery duty day.
We had our lunch with #1 son's family and daughter.
#2 son and Tif were making family pics with Tif's family.
Unbelievably both #2 son and daughter went under contract with sales of their houses today. They have both had their houses for sale since late summer but for them to both go under contract on the same day is weird. #2 son has been haggling for a couple weeks with proposed buyers but finally reached and agreement today and this is daughter's first offer on hers but after only a couple short counters they came to an agreement so both are in the rental market now.
G-daughter IR and hubbie went to sleep in the recliner after #1 son's family left so daughter and I rode around and checked out the area for houses  for a couple hours.
We didn't find much but the market has really slowed this time of year.
Back home daughter left and hubbie and I did chores early so we could get to the Hanging of the Greens service at church.
Hubbie had to be there at 5:30 as the deacons were handing out the Lord's Supper packets and ornaments for the trees at the doors.
I finished up chores and made it there just before 6:00 . There was another colorful sunset and in the clear sky the moon was all alone tonight.

G-daughter RL was not having the quiet time and hubbie took her out first . Hubbie had a wreath to put in this window and she got to help.
Then #1 son had to take her out for good after she hung her ornament on the tree.
We came home right after the service and didn't attend the fellowship afterward but we were both tired and had some things we needed to get done at home tonight to get ready to get back in the busy routine in the morning.
We need to get in the bed earlier tonight also to get back on the up at 7:00 routine after almost a week off this schedule.
Thankful for the coming season of celebration tonight as we celebrate the birth of our wonderful Savior and also praying for #2 son, Tif , son-in-love and daughter as they get ready to enter a new chapter in their lives.
God Bless and Good Night
