Our New Home!

So, we sold our first home back in August. We listed it and 6 days later it was sold! Way faster than we thought it was going to sell. I was happy but wasn't planning on being out of that house so soon. It was bittersweet. We have so many great memories from that house and we loved our neighbors and friends we had made on the street. So, we ended up renting, after looking at a million houses it seemed, a house around the corner that was bigger and better suited our needs. So we are contemplating whether we should pick up a short sale or build. If we build, this is the house we like the best with the best floor plan we've seen. Since we are planning on being in a position to take care of either sets of parents as they age, this house has the best living arrangements to make that possible. But above all, we are sitting and waiting to see what the economy does over the next year. If interest rates really start to climb, we will buy immediately, most likely, if not we will continue to look for the right piece of property that will be the best for the family. We want land that the boys can ride four wheelers on and have space to make forts and just be kids. And a place where we feel like we can continue to grow our family!
