Moving On

It's official, we've sold the house. I love this house, and I'm certain I'm going to sob like an idiot when we sign the closing papers in 2 weeks. This is our first house, the one we brought our babies home to, our HOME. It's a really great place and I hope the new people like it as much as we have. That said, we're excited to be embarking on our adventurous summer.

We're moving into a 2 bedroom shoebox half the size of this place for the next 6 months. In our quest to save, save, save, we're cancelling our TV and home phone (family take note, it's just the cells) along with anything else we can deem wasteful. Given that, I'm stopping at Starbucks for each of the next 9 days until the budget actually begins.

God willing, we'll be moving into our roomy new place in about 6 months. We're thrilled at the idea of hosting out of town family, slumber parties and holiday blowouts. We like the close schools (pleeeeze work with me RSD!), parks and Target. And we're happy to still be close enough to see family often, even if we do need to drive for 5 minutes instead of strolling down the street.

I have this super cute picture of the house on the camera with the dead battery complete with spiffy new paint and actual flowers potted out the front door. I'll get it posted before we move.
