bittersweet

This morning we accepted an offer on our home (YEAH in this market).  Although we didn't brake even on this home, we are hoping the gain on the moving end will someday make up for it.  We are happy though, because there are SO many homes for sale in this area and it also finally puts an end to our decision to move (we emotionally have been moved out of this house for 2 years!).  At the same time... we LOVE this home.  There are so many things we are going to miss about it.  It was OUR first home, we made it ours.  The pond, the colors, the peaceful backyard, the improvements that Tobin and I shared so many hours and precious memories on.  Along the way, almost every member of our extended family has come out to help us with bits and pieces to make this house what it is.  That is why this is bittersweet. 

However, we need more space.  It would be nice to have a playroom, I really need a room for my embroidery business, and we want to be in a neighborhood with kids.  So the packing begins, and we look forward to making new memories in our new home soon!
