SOLD

I've been waiting a weeks to finally post this....we sold our house! We received an offer just about a week and a half after we put our house on the market. Today we finally got word that the buyers' financing was a sure thing. We will close the end of next week-hooray! The first little family that came to see the house bought it. They are super excited as this is their first home and we are super excited because it no longer is ours! We moved in with Jake's parents about a week ago and have been moving stuff here and to storage a little at a time. There's still some things to be cleared out, but we should be moved out completely by Saturday. It's been a challenge to fit a whole house full of stuff into one storage unit and 3 bedrooms in Jake's parents' house. Thankfully, though, his parents have plenty of space for us and it's been a pretty smooth transition. Leah has started waking up once in the middle of the night, but hopefully she'll get used to her surroundings soon and we can all get a full night's sleep.

On another note...we went to Nauvoo last weekend with my family and had a grand ol' time. Jake's parents even came down for a night. We always love going to Nauvoo and it was especially nice to be there when the weather was nice but without the pageant crowd. I have pictures, but not on the computer yet. Check out my sister or sister in-law's blogs for pictures soon....they're both better bloggers than me! :)

Back to house talk, in case you're interested, I don't have a way to link our houseplans, but here's a floorplan that's pretty similar. Main differences are the layout of the mudroom and bathroom on the main floor, our laundry room will be upstairs, the office off the entry will be closed in and have french doors, and the upstairs has all the same things but is laid out differently. Oh, and our garage entrance will be from the front of the house and it's a 3 car and not 2. There's lots of other little details that are different, but I'll have to find a way to get our plans online.
