Wow and the house is SOLD!

Well it has been a few months since I lasted posted and lots has happened.  We listed our house on December 1, 2013 and it was officially sold on March 31, 2014!  This is great because while down on the island for spring break and our "search and view" we found a house that while it isn't perfect will definitely work for us for the next few years. 


One of the things that was important to me during this process was to keep Thing 1 and Thing 2 really involved.  Thing 1 is in grade one and we know he has a hard time with transition.  We took them both to the new house and showed them where their rooms would be, checked out the cool backyard, there is a playhouse with bunk beds!!  We also drove around the neighbourhood showing them the places that we will regularly visit like the elementary school, local parks, grocery stores, daddy's office and the recreation center.

This year I decided to take the plunge into Project Life as it has been and will continue to be a year of big changes for us.  I feel like I am doing a pretty good job of keeping on top of things.  I picked up a a journal at Target and I sit down at the end of each week and document what happened.  I am also using the Collect App on my phone which has been a great reference point for me.  I might even send those photos off to Persnickety Prints at some point.

When Chris and I were out with the Realtor she printed off the property information sheet and then a few of the photos from the listing.  I thought it would be a neat idea to document the house search for Project Life and I think it came out pretty well.  Check out the photos below!

These are all of the 11 houses that we looked at, we loved #10 out of 11!

These are the inside photos from the printout we were provided with.  

I think this was a fun way to document the experience.

Hopefully I will get back to writing more frequently now that life seems to be coming together.

Have a wonderful day!!
