Our New House!

As many of you know, we moved here in October of 2008 after my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. We really enjoyed helping out and spending time with my family over the past 2 1/2 years. My family always knew that it was our plan to move back to Ohio in the future and we always wanted to be back there before Claire started school but we just never quite knew what our future was going to hold for us. Once the decision was made to try and move this summer/fall - we started house hunting...

We bought a house in March. We were fortunate enough that my dad was able to see pictures of it before he passed away.

It has taken us until these past few days to know when we are moving. I put in my two weeks notice last night and we plan to move August 20th.

The house needed some work so we hired a contractor to fix up some things and renovate the bathrooms. We went in early July and painted the house and this past weekend we moved all of our furniture into the house. Now we are living with my mom in her new condo until we move.

Here are pictures of our new house...
