We have been going back and forth for a while now about our house. We have been here 8 years and have done lots of tweaking and improving and making it what we want it to be. Now that we really love it we've decided it's too small for our family of 4. It was perfect 8 years ago when it was just Jeff and I, but now things are a little cramped and a lot cluttered. With interest rates being so low right now we thought we'd test the real estate waters and put a sign up "for fun" to see what happened. Well, within 24 hours of the MLS listing we had two groups of people check it out and one made an offer for the listing price. Needless to say, we are freaking out. We seem to be awake every morning at about 2 AM and 3AM and 4AM thinking about what's to come. I have big dark cirles under my eyes and I feel like I have a newborn back in the house! We plan to do some serious house hunting in the next week and see if we find the next house of our dreams. Stay tuned...
We had a great Thanksgiving today. Jeff's folks came down and we all had a mellow day. Jeff tried a turkey on the grill for the first time and it turned our perfectly.
Just a random shot of the kind of stuff you find around the house when you have a 4 year old boy!
Two of the things I am thankful for in my life!
I am so jealous! I tell myself to be grateful for our tiny, 100+ year old house but with two kids it is getting harder and harder to do. Our problem is leaving our neighbors though... they would be totally crushed. My kids are the grandkids they never had.
