We're Moving on Up!

Here's a little update on our efforts to move.
We listed our house with a realtor on Thursday, March 8th and it sold in 3 days! The market is slow and the average time on the market is over 90 days. We ended up selling far sooner than we planned. Click

We went house hunting yesterday and found our new house! Our offer was accepted last night! It is in the Crystal Lake South area within walking distance of Woodscreek Park. It is a 4 bedroom, blue colonial with lots of room and a beautiful, fenced backyard. Zane's requirements were to have "an upstairs, downstairs & a fireplace" and we found it. I like most of the colors so I won't have a lot of painting to do. Our buyer wanted to move up their closing so we will be closing on both houses on April 12th. We have less than 4 weeks to pack up and get everything ready to go. We also have to figure out transferring Zane into the school district and registering him for kindergarten. We will be very busy for the next month. Click

We feel so blessed that this has been such a quick & easy process so far.
We are excited!
