Opa (Chris’ g-father) called just a short while ago. He has been the realtor that has been dealing with our end of the estate sale for the last several months. He wanted to let me know that the closing on the property and house was signed today. My sister and I will be recieving a partial payment for the sale within the next few days, as per the probate attorney conversation I had last week. He has to keep some funds in holding until the IRS approves the nontaxable status!

 WOOHAW!
