Fandango.com Deal at Livingsocial - 2 Tickets for $9

Now that's a great deal! Makes for a pretty cheap date....as long as you fill up before you go or bring your own snacks in. Not that I'd ever do that. No way. Never. In fact, we went the other day and paid $4.75 for a 20-ounce bottled water. Lesson learned.

Do you sneak in goodies when you go to the movies? Hypothetically speaking, of course. :)

Head on over to Livingsocial to snag this deal!

Our house finally sold! What do I need to do before final walk through?

After nine months on the market, several open houses, and lots of showings we finally got a buyer! We accepted their offer, the house has passed the inspection and appraisal, and now we are just waiting for closing. The date is set. June 27th. Less than three weeks to go. Packing is in full swing and we hope to be out by the 25th.

Other than packing our stuff up and moving it all out, what else needs to be done?

Of course, a good cleaning is in order. Everything will be cleaned, including the carpets. And the lawn will be freshly mowed and flower beds weeded. I also want to leave some sort of gift basket to welcome them into their new home.

But, what do we do about the small holes in the wall where pictures and shelves were hung? Should we patch the holes and do some touch up painting? Or is it just expected that there will be existing holes in the wall?

I want to make sure that everything goes smoothly with the final walk through and that I do the right things for the new owners.

I need your input! What's the standard home transfer etiquette?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

Can I tell you something?

My five year old daughter prefaces most statements with "Can I tell you something?"

Of course you can. Yes, sweetie. Yes. Uh huh. Sure. WHAT???

I hate to say it, but after the nth time she asks, it's pretty annoying! This is said in the most loving, I spend just about every minute of my day with my kids, kind of way. Those five extra words before the infinite amount of words she speaks every single day just seem so unnecessary. What's up with that? It's not like she ever lacks for things to say.

But it's hard to be annoyed for very long though! Especially when she smiles at you like that and she says something hilarious, which is all the time!
Do any of your children do this?
