Window shopping for the yard

I got an email from the realtor yesterday asking if Billy and Johanna would be able to feed the fish until we got there. Fish??? Yep, apparently the little garden pond has a bunch of koi in it, so we are getting fish and turkeys with the property. We will see how long either of them last with the cats and boys!

Today I was browsing for the stuff we want for the yard. We are turning a big part of the property into a BMX track for the kids to play on, and we are eventually going to make a portion of the front pasture a basketball/volleyball/tennis court. I have always wanted to get the kids a big wooden playset as well, and now that we will have the yardspace to have it, I can't wait! This is the teeter totter we are getting. This is the playset they have all oogled over for a couple of years. And this is the waterslide we never thought we would have room for! We can't make it all a reality for at least a few more months, but I cannot wait!

We heard the escrow is supposed to close this weekend. Nerves... I am all nerves right now!
