Whirlwind 2010


So we've started out 2010 with a bang! We knew that we wanted to try selling our house this year. We outgrew it a couple years ago but Kevin wanted us to wait for a while. And so we waited with the idea that we would try and sell in the spring. Then Kevin's work threw us off a bit when they announced that he could either work from home or move out of state. We knew that it would probably take a few months to sell so we decided to put the house on the market and while we waited we could decide what we wanted to do. We listed it January 13th and had sold it by the 16th! We couldn't believe it! It has been a crazy month. On February 5th we signed paperwork and by the 10th our house of 10 years no longer belonged to us. We've moved into a rental and have decided to build a new house here. We are very excited about this new adventure but sad to leave the home that we've brought all four of our children home to. There are so many memories there and I feel like I just didn't have enough time to process it all. But things are moving smoothly and quickly and so I suppose it was meant to be. We'll try to keep you all updated on our progress! Happy 2010!

  4. That is incredible! Good luck on your new venture. We built our home 2 years ago and although it was crazy and hard during the process I have loved every minute of it since. What fun!
