Sneak Preview Of Our New House

We are busy packing at our old house and getting ready for the move, which should be the week before Thanksgiving. Here is the only photo I have of our new house to post right now. As fall weather is quickly setting in, the yard will be faded into dormancy by the time we move, so I wanted to share this one from a few weeks ago.



Our current house sold on a Friday and we made an offer on this house the following Monday. We feel very lucky to have found this one, as it had only been on the market a few days when we looked at it. Despite the housing slump, homes are still selling fairly quickly in that area.

Beth and the boys commute to school will go from 16 miles to 2.5 miles, and Richard's commute to work will drop from 29 miles to 23 miles. Additionally, most everything we need (grocery, Home Depot, bank, gas, restaurants, Target, WalMart, etc) will be within 2-3 miles, rather than 10-15 miles. We are so looking forward to less time in the car traveling places.
