Moving, Renting and Building

Our family has had some big changes happen over the last few weeks - the reason for my lack of blogging lately!

 Colt, decided back in May that we were going to put our house on the market to see what would happen (I was at the beach)... I really did not tell anyone or make a big deal about it because we had NO plan of what we were going to do if it sold. I told Colt he had 2 months because showing the house is not easy with two toddlers and a huge dog that weighs more than me... and has bad legs - I wish someone had got me on video loading him in the car... I bet it was hilarious! Plus, we LOVE our house so the thought of leaving was so hard!  And for a planner like me, having no plan was hard to wrap my head around!

Long story short, we sold our house to a sweet couple and we had to be out by August 11th! We have been praying a lot throughout this process and we are so excited about this new chapter in our lives! We have moved into a rental house and are starting the process of building a new home!! Thank goodness I know the best builder in Birmingham :)

We have been blessed with this amazing opportunity - I cannot tell you how excited and nervous I am all at the same time.  It is a lot to take on financially and with two young and busy boys... I am trying not to worry and just enjoy the process! I will try and keep you posted! 

107 Oglesby Ave... Our 1st house that we bought together, the house we came home to after our honeymoon, the house we brought our babies home too!! The house Colt worked so hard on - remodeling and adding on, laying all of our beautiful wood floors and so much more... We love our cute house and will miss it! We have so many wonderful memories with our family and friends there.
