We sold the house!

Praise the Lord! Our house sold last week while we were at Mom and Dad's! We can finally move into our dream home. I still can't believe it will be ours next week, but it is. We took the girls over to the new house yesterday in preparation for the walk through with the builder tomorrow. I heard Julie Holmer's voice in my head reminding me to take plenty of pictures. Of course, the house is empty, but you can get the idea.

We close on the new house next week (December 5). Kim and I are planning to paint a few rooms on Thursday and Friday and then hopefully move on Saturday. We have a garage full of boxes and yet there is still more to pack - ugh! I will send out the new address soon. I am waiting to find out if we can keep our phone number before I send out the new info.

We asked the builder to paint the front door and the shutters because I just wasn't crazy about the color. Here is the way it looked a month ago.



Here is the update with the new color. I love it!



When you walk into the house, this is what you see




The dining room is to the right and leads into the butler's pantry which leads into the kitchen.





The living room is downstairs with a gorgeous fireplace.



The master bedroom is off the living room and has a huge window seat.



The master bathroom is awesome with the biggest closet I have ever seen!



Upstairs are the bedrooms, playroom, my office, and a bathroom. At the top of the stairs is my office.



Across the hall is the play room. Yes, it is gigantic! 19 x 23!



The girl's bedrooms are much larger than the ones in this house. And both have huge closets.




We can't wait for you to come visit! We have plenty of room now! Please keep us in your prayers as we make this move. I am starting to feel overwhelmed by all that has to be done!
