But now it's time. So, we worked hard for the last 2 months to clear things out and get it ready and finally listed our house on the market last Monday. Well - things moved quickly this week. We had 2 groups look at the house and received 2 offers on the house. And accepted one yesterday. We sold our house in less than a week!!!
Now, you are probably thinking..."that's great, Julie, so where are you moving to?" Well, I have no idea yet!!! We have to be out of this house by June 10th (ahhhh) and are looking at a house tomorrow to see if we like it. We pray that it will all work out, but believe it or not - even not knowing where I will be moving our 3 boys to in a few short weeks, I'm not all that stressed! YET! I'm sure it will hit soon enough and I'll worry about it then!
But in the meantime...we are just excited to be able to say we sold our house at about 98% of what we asked for it. We can say we are one of those people who sold their house in a week! (Of course, until we actually close, we still pray it will all go through!)
We will miss this house for sure, but are excited about a new to us place, hopefully with more room to run for the boys outside, in the country, and a place to call home for many more years to come! (Trust me - I told Dave I do NOT want to move again in 4 years. He said "isn't that what you told me when we moved here?" Oh yea - I forgot!)

Here are some pictures of our home for the past four and a half years. Parts will be bittersweet to leave - we brought all 3 boys home to this house. It is the only home they have ever known. But Landon is already excited about the idea of a new house...for what a 4 year old can understand!
Enjoy!

Thank you so much for your comment. I am so sorry that we had to meet on such similar heartbreaking terms. Your story does give me hope though as my husband and I will be pushing on and trying to get pregnant very shortly.
It is definitely something I will never forget and a story that we intend to keep alive with our future children.
Thank you again for sharing your story with me. You have a beautiful family.
*hugs*
