Yep, got ours sold this morning (thank you Lord!), ran over to Howard, got to meet Rochelle and Derek and decided to buy their house! Plus we got the bonus of getting to meet Teresa too! I just hope the paperwork on our house goes quickly to we can get the kids' money to them in a timely fashion. Oh, and the cherry on top was getting to have a burger at Toot's for supper! It's been a great day!

Lisa-tired but happy....

Hooray! Be sure to have a" fudge monkey" at Toots while you are getting used to the area.They'll explain what it is. There is Poplar Pizza too and Connie's "Sweet and Spicy.' Longton has a nice cafe too and Moline has a great place to eat,The Swinging Bridge Cafe, that's inside the Crooked Creek Lodge.
Glad you got to meet Teresa also. She is one of a kind.
I was hoping you would get that house .It's nice to have someone there who will understand and enjoy the style of the place. Will your son claim the basement for his own "man cave?"

Congrats from Longton, Lisa. just a reminder we have the Lion's Den, too. and they are mighty good cooks there.
Lee-Ann and Mary run a sweet spot to meet in the evening...........oh, and altho I have yet to be there, money gets tighter and
I just can't afford to eat out.........I hear they even have pie and ice cream........and Rick and Debbie have a good menu, too

We ate at Toot's last night, and I think it was the best burger I have ever had, and I'm not just saying that! My son LOVED the french fries. We also got to meet the 4th grade teacher, she made our burgers! She said working at Toot's was her "my kid needs braces" job.

Will and Kyle did explore the basement at the house. The pipes kinda hang too low for it to be everyday living space. But I am still very glad to have me a hidey hole from any tornadoes! Especially after looking at Joplin....we had a tornado here a few years back, it was nothing compared to what happened to those folks!

Thanks for telling me about all the good places to eat. Kyle want's a fudge monkey now! Alas, I am diabetic so I have to pass on the sugary treats. And I have a sweet tooth! But they have "No Sugar Added" ice cream at the Family Market and they said they would use that to make me whatever I wanted at the Soda Fountain. How cool is that!
