Out with the old, In with the new.

We sold our townhome and have bought our first real house. I am still in shock that things are moving right along. But with it, comes the excitement of having more space for my family and the sadness of leaving the past behind. This townhome is where I brought my kids home for the first time. This was THEIR first home. There are many memories here, both good & bad. I wouldn't change anything, for it's what made me what I am today. I am stronger. I am wiser. I am more aware of the world around me. I live each day for my kids. But I will do that in the new house as well. I'm not sure what new things are to come, but I know I look forward to it. I'm sure the emotional part of me will be short lived once we get into our new house and start making it ours.

Here is a picture of our new abode that we should be residing in, sometime after February 24th. I am so proud of how far Cary & I have come. It has 3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, kitchen, living room, family room, dining room, basement and 2 car garage. The yard is just huge. It has so much potential for upgrades too. But thats in the years to come. We surely can't afford it now. The kids are excited about this too. They will each have their own room for the first time. I think that's kind of bittersweet too. Taking them apart. But we've still been having bedtime issues and splitting them up anyway, so I won't take it too hard and can hope they will work through this as well. This is a good thing for all of us and I really can't wait!
