Well, Thanksgiving went very well despite our many trips out the
door to go look at prospective houses in the Beaverton area! My
sister and Nanna were absolutely wonderful about watching Lindsay for
us while we galavanted around, rushing from house to house. It
was soooo much easier to not have her there with us, wanting to touch
things and go up and down stairs at a snails pace. ;) After
looking around for those two weeks, we realized that, first of all,
there isn’t a lot on the market this time of year, and secondly,
Portland is WAY more expensive to live in than Bellingham.
We
did manage to find a potential home though in a nice little
neighborhood with some of the best schools in the Portland vicinity, so
we’re praying that the deal on our house goes through without a hitch,
and that we’re able to close in time to keep the deal on this potential
house in Beaverton. It’s incredibly stressful! I can’t
believe how tired I’ve been these past three weeks! And time for
blogging? Unheard of.
I also didn’t get much of a chance to take good pics while I was down there, although I did take a few, but I know that Chloe, and possibly Carrie,
will have some good ones on their sites in the next few days, so keep
checking those as well. I’ll keep everyone posted on the buying
and selling houses situation, but just keep your fingers crossed for
us! Let’s hope this all goes off without a hitch, and that we’ll
be in our new place before the end of the year.
Fingers crossed for the house!!! Brrrr! Glad you got home before the weather changed. Thanks for the pics.
Oh no! I didn’t get my camera out once. But to be fair, you only came over to my house once. And it was only for a couple hours anyway. We miss you. Come back soon!
