School starts on Monday, and for some reason I started thinking about the 'what I did on my summer vacation' essays we did way back when....
Our vacation was actually in May (and it was wonderful) so what did we do with our summer? in a word -- MOVE.
We listed our house for sale on Kevin's birthday (6/25) and had an offer in mid-July. After we had an offer we started looking for a place to move to, and that was its own adventure. In town it is very much a seller's market and so we had to put in offers on FIVE different places before one was accepted. We had our heartbreaks on places that we could really see ourselves in, but think that place we found and had an accepted offer on is a great place for us to be -- located in midtown Houston!
August has been spent packing and packing some more. Our move out day is Monday. We still have a lot to do tomorrow (Sunday) but we will be ready!
Kevin has been busy taking care of stuff at home. Our ceiling is finally painted, this was the last item on our fix list for the buyers. He had to talk to at least 6 different painters, but did not give up!
Hopefully we will have photos and adventures to share soon!
What did you do this summer?
