Our old house is officially listed with a Realtor. If you want to see it or know someone who might be interested, here it is along with the information of who to contact. Any help is greatly appreciated!
While my other half doesn't carry the same sentiment as myself, it was hard for me to let go. We bought the house shortly after getting engaged. Since then we have been married, brought two amazing children into the world, and had a couple 1st birthday and baptism celebrations.
Taking down the monkey and tree mural in the kids' room was by far the hardest thing to do. I still get a little teary-eyed thinking about not living where the most important memories so far has taken place.
It's not just about the memories either. The house was very dated and needed some curb appeal. A lot of work was put into landscaping and getting the inside updated. So what do we do? Buy a much larger but same type of house. Both were a blank canvas. We started to put our 'touch' into the McCallsburg house before finding our forever home. Now we get to put our own touches into another home that I hope will be enjoyed for many years to come.
We didn't get all of our dream projects done at the old house but they have been replaced by even more (and more expensive) dream projects. One thing that has helped ease my sadness is that it's hard to believe we've only lived in our new house for approximately a month. It really does seem likes it's been much, much longer. I take that as a very good sign.
Keep checking back to see how we change our new house into our forever home. I have found some great ideas on Pinterest to keep Mark and myself busy.
