How is everyone doing this Monday morning?
This weekend was a busy one for us! On Friday Annabelle had a dress rehearsal for dance, then on Saturday she had her recital. My mom, dad, and MIL all came as well. Let me tell you, there is nothing better than watching the little ones dance, so cute! After the recital everyone came back to our house for pizza.
The other big news? We’ve decided to look for a new home. We always knew this wasn’t going to be our forever home, but I was still kind of surprised when Matt brought it up this past week. I also had a minor meltdown, since this is the only town I’ve know (except for the four years I spent in East Lansing at MSU). I mean I don’t exactly like change, and this is a huge change. I mean, I am even kinda sad that I’ll have to find a new grocery store. I love our grocery store, and all of the workers. Silly? Maybe, but it’s true. But, since Annabelle is starting school in the Fall we decided now is as good as a time as any to start looking. We’d rather not have to have her switch schools, so we decided to go for it. Our goal? To find, and be moved in by August, which we both know is kind of a lofty goal.
Here’s the thing. This also means we need to get our house on the market, which means cleaning and de-cluttering. Lots, and lots, of cleaning and de-cluttering. Thankfully our parents both said that we could store stuff at there house, which saves the money of needing to rent storage. I still can’t believe how many boxes of stuff we have sent over. So. much. stuff. After we are done de-cluttering (and de-personalizing), we will move on to the deep cleaning. Since we want to get the house listed ASAP, we’ve been pretty much working our tails off.
This means that I probably won’t be blogging as much the next few weeks. I’m going to be taking my sewing stuffing and silhouette to my parents house, which means I won’t be crafting for a while. I’ll keep you updated on the house search, and how selling our house is going. Have a fantastic week, and wish us luck!! Leave any tips you have for moving too!
