Let the packing begin.
After looking at houses all over town for 10 hours straight...we finally found a place to live. It was actually the second house that we looked at, but it was good to see what else was out there.
This house is pretty cool. All hardwoods, 2 wood burning stoves, vintage 1920's & close to parks, shops & family. The front porch is covered & I guess it's actually a sun room. It has a huge garage with a finished office space. The yard is going to need some work, but the guy that owns the house is way cool & we've already talked about landscaping. We meet up with him tomorrow to sign the papers & make it official.
It's nice that we don't have that much to pack. We've been pretty minimalist since moving into our house last year. Really, it's just the kitchen & books that need to be boxed up, everything else is already in something portable. We'll get every thing together today & tomorrow & we're off on Saturday.
Our Roots
- Kristin
- Colorado
- I married my soul mate 10 years ago. We got married very young & we are very thankful that we did despite what other opinions may have been. It gave us a chance to grow up together & learn how to ride life's roller coaster ups & downs as a team. We had some good friends & adventures in Vegas when we started out. Then we hit a fork in the road & moved to Portland, OR so I could go to school & pursue a career in chiropractic. That's where we learned that sometimes life has plans for us other than our "perfectly mapped out" one. Bill got a promotion that moved us out to Colorado, somewhere he's always wanted to live, but a place where my thoughts of chiropractic school would die. Marriage is all about compromise, so we made the move to bigger & better things. As we continued to be successful at work, it felt like there was something missing. That's when I started to think about having a baby. As a stay at home mom to Logan, life was everything we wanted it to be. Then we were crazy enough to do it again & soon added Carter to the family. This is our adventure raising two boys in the Rocky Mountains.

Congrats! The house sounds great! I love old vintage houses.
YAAAY!! Pictures, please.
The nice thing about having a baby is that you have to take so much crap with you everywhere you go that you already have it packed up! :)
Things are moving QUICKLY!!!! Congratulations!
