Time with Craig

We got to Fresno Thursday afternoon and rushed over to Craig and Claire's lender.  We are co-signers on the loan for their new home and needed to sign some papers.  We are hoping they will close next Friday but it may not be until Monday.  It would give them an extra weekend to move in if it closes on Friday.   Everything is falling in place so hopefully it will work out.

The lender is right down the street from Craig's work and we knew he was still there so we headed over.  We had a bunch of mail waiting for us so picked it up and found Craig was available for dinner.  There is a bar/restaurant within walking distance of his office, the Elbow Room and so we had wine and dinner with him.  Claire was getting her hair done for Craig's office Christmas party which was last night.  I asked Craig to text me a picture of the two of them all ready for the party!  

Tonight is dinner at Ernie and Linda's (Claire's parents).  We are bringing desert which Craig ordered for us from the bakery where he worked when he was in High School!  Chip and Stephen will be there with dates and I believe Claire's brother and family may be down from Sacramento as well.  It will be a lot of fun.  I hope to have some pictures tomorrow!

A very happy nephew..."Ain't Life Grand!"
