Today mom and dad called from Cullman Alabama, it now official, money wired and they have officially closed! Hooray, this has been wearing heavy on everyone's mind in the family.

While it was not the smoothest transaction in a REALTOR daughter eye's, my parents are happy and our now in the works of having a home built for them.
Mom did not call to tell that they officially closed, she wanted to know where her cannisters were and did I mark the box special?
As we talked I retraced my steps...3rd truck...marked fragile and kitchen.
As I sat and thought about it..if it were mine I would have marked it COFFEE..instead I included love notes that said mom and dad I will miss you! I love you guys! and of course smiley faces.
I got teary eyed thinking that I won't be able to visit as often...
oh I know I need to just get over it!..
Funny thing..they are going back to Pompano Beach next week to renew their vows..Its amazing 50 years of marriage...and now I get to watch them exchange vows.
We still have another problem, dad can't find any of his dress clothes, they are packed in a box somewhere! Before we hung up I told him..."Dad if you can't find the boxes, please go out and buy yourself some new dress clothes. As a daughter, I would not want to see you in shorts on your wedding day!"
I just wonder though before they take that walk down the isle..should I offer him the same option he gave me before I got married..."Here are the car keys...you don't have to do this..you can either go out the back door or meet your future husband at the altar! Which is it and he told me a joke. Yes I had last minute jitters..even the minister was telling jokes.
Should I or Shouldn't I??????
Nah..I won't give him that option..I love them as a couple..after 50 years I think my dad is pretty sure!
