"Old" House

As many of you know by now, we're in the process of moving to McKinney. It's taking a little longer than expected to get the new house ready, but we've been fortunate enough to be able to stay with Greg's mom. We're hopeful to move into the new house soon and get back on a regular schedule for all of us.

It all started several months ago...

Greg enjoys the occasional browsing of new houses that come on the market. Right before we headed down to Florida for a vacation (back in March!), he found a house that he wanted to go look at. So we toured the house and were intrigued by the idea of fixing it up. So we put an offer on the house when we were in Florida and ended up accepting their counter offer. Who buys houses when they're out of town? Apparently we do! Anyways, when we got back from Florida we had to get the "old" house ready to sell. My mom graciously came down for a few days so we could declutter and get the house staged. We had a couple open houses and had a contract on the house in 3 weeks without a real estate agent! We ended up selling the house to a super nice family who is adding on to make it a little larger. Hopefully they'll let us come back after the improvements. Here is how I'd like to remember the house...
