Big Stuff... and some little stuff too

So... Ryan and I put our house on the market.

This has been a long time coming and we are both excited and terrified.

We LOVE our house!

We moved in before it was finished and have spent countless hours

and many dollars making it our HOME.

We both work in the cities and commute daily.  Our families and majority

of our friends live closer to the cities, and the distance makes getting together

always just a bit more challenging.  Lila will be starting school

in the fall and we want to be settled in as we start that new chapter.

This is the right time.

That said, we have put so much of ourselves into that house, to let it go

for what the market "values" it as, is almost painful.

But we are hopeful!  Hopeful that this process will be, if not smooth....

at least not turbulent!  Wish us luck!

This has consumed a large portion of our life lately, but here are a few photos

of time that hasn't been spent organizing, finishing, cleaning, looking, etc....

~We braved the cold to go play outside~

~We played indoors when the cold just was too much.~

Puzzles are a hit in our house!

So is Temple Run and My Playhome

Doc McStuffins anyone?!  ;)

~Elaina LOVES her skinny jeans.  "Mom, they are just SO skinny!" 

~We like to party!  (Don't ask me about the headbands... I don't question anymore.)

~It's a zoo at our house!~

~Our Valentines Day consisted of work, some chocolate, new puzzles for the girls...

...maybe drinking a little too much wine at home in our sweats and taking goofy pictures of ourselves looking like Boone.

~I drove through some miserable weather to go visit some out of state family!  Worth the drive!~

Ellie was in 7th Heaven holding baby Soren

Now it's just about time to head home and tackle some more organizing and packing... We're being hopeful that someone will see this charming little home and decide they just HAVE to have it!!
