A Big Move

We are doing it!  We sold our condo and we're buying a house!  After 10 months being on the market, our condo sold!  We close in 1 week.  It's a big, exciting and scary venture.  We didn't plan on moving in the winter but that is just how things are working out.  The extra time off of work around the holidays will really help.  And we got some great black friday deals on things for the new house!
This upcoming change is bittersweet.  This was our first home.  This was the house we brought our baby girl home to from the hospital.  This is the only home our dog has ever known.  We love the community and how close we are to work and to the mountains.  But things are too small around here.  We want room to house our family and friends when they come and visit.  We want a yard.  Paul wants a 2 car garage and a workshop.  We are excited to get settled in to our new place.  We'll be there just in time for Christmas.  I guess we'll have to get used to shoveling the snow ourselves!!  Lia has been great during these changing times.  She's been helping to pack her things and she's having fun playing with all the boxes.  We'll send pics of the new place as soon as we move in!

  1. We are right there with you. Moving to a bigger house on 12/20, at which time I'll be five months pregnant. Yes, we're insane. But, it's all very exciting as well.

    We'll be thinking of you guys, and hope you get settled into the new place and have a wonderful, relaxing holiday season thereafter.

  2. Hey Lindsay,
    Congratulations on Baby #3. That is very exciting! Do you know if you are having another boy or is it a girl this time? Good luck with the move and I wish you the best Christmas season ever. Tell Aaron hi from us.
