The past two months we have been working to get our current house ready to sell. We painted the cabinets in the kitchen, put in new carpet and painted the outside of the house. We decided to put it on the market the end of March and before the sign was even in the yard we had somebody interested in looking at the house. Then on April 5th they made an offer and we close on May 6. Everything has happened so fast, a little faster than I think we were ready for, but it was great news. Houses on our street have been on the market for months and many have had to reduce their prices so we feared the same. I guess the updating paid off because we sold our house in about 10 days!
So onto looking for our next home we went. We found a nice house on some land (1/2 acre lot) and made an offer on the 13th and they accepted the next day and we close on June 3rd. We are so excited and can't wait to make memories in a new house. We will have lots of memories in our first home together, we brought Cade home to this house, so it will be kinda hard to leave. But I am sure the next house will be great. On top of all the moving we have a trip planned on April 26th, we are spending a week in New York City for our 8 year anniversary. So I have about 10 days to pack up the house and put it in storage, so a lot to do and I don't know if I can do it in 10 days. The good thing is we packed a lot of stuff when we put the carpet in last month so that helped.
Just wanted to give everyone an update since it has been a while, I will keep you posted on our new family adventure.
