Norah is calling this storage unit her new house. And to be fair we did tell her when we were boxing up her stuff that it would to with us to the new house...
We sold our home in two weeks! TWO WEEKS! Crazy since it took so long last time. We are feeling really blessed because right after we went under contract three other houses on our street went on the market for $10/$20k less! We close in three weeks and then will be homeless. We are putting our stuff in storage and going to stay with mom and dad for a few weeks...hoping it's just a few weeks and I'm sure they are hoping it's just a few weeks. I probably shouldn't have signed the boys up for swim team and Norah for ballet here this summer but had no idea our house would sell that fast. We will all just be in the car a lot this summer.
And hoping not for too long. We put in a few offers but haven't gotten the houses so we keep looking and praying something would come up. We know what area we want to be in and it would mean an hour less of driving a day for Brent which will be nice. Just hoping a house without an inground pool three steps from the sliding doors opens up. (Seems like most have inground pools and since Norah just jumped off the side of the pool the other night I'm not living with a pool. the lifeguard was thankfully closer than we were)
It's sad to leave our neighbors. We told them to come with us - we've loved living next to them. It's really nice to just let the girls go back and forth all day. And Joel follows too! I know we can still do play dates but it's so nice to just be so close. Praying we can move into a neighborhood with lots of kids.
So we are praying our house comes up soon but also not willing to settle too much. And also praying our house closes on time. The new owners are ridiculous with what they want us to do.
