It's been a hectic month! We've never sold a house before, and it's been a LONG time since we've had to move -- which is a completely different experience with kids! We closed on our house October 1. We praise God that He sold our house so quickly (we had a contract in under 30 days!), giving us a better price than we should have expected. Luckily, my mom came out to help me pack -- it was originally scheduled to be a five day trip, but it turned into a 19 day trip! We spent a week cleaning our "new" house, and then Dad flew up at the last minute to help us make the actual move. It was an absolute blessing to have their help!
Luke and I had made plans to rent a small house, but it ended up a gentleman in our church offered to let us live in his vacant house at NO CHARGE! This is kind of a dream house to us. It has more space than we could have hoped for, and it's out in the country in a beautiful setting. We've loved spending the fall here! It's definitely going to be hard to leave.
So let me back up.......over Labor Day, Luke took Noah to the Cleveland Air Show. They drove to the nearest station and rode the RTA downtown. Noah was, of course, thrilled!
I can't really comment on any of the photos because I wasn't there, and I don't know what any of that stuff is! They came home with good reports, though!Luke celebrated his 29th birthday on September 10. This is how he spent most of his special day:
.....working on the wiring at the old house -- there were a few things we had to do at the buyers' request. And luckily, Luke's handy around the house which has saved us lots of money over the years!We did have his favorite meal for dinner -- stuffed pork chops -- and he got a few presents! I love this picture of my family. I think Noah and Abby actually look like a brother and sister instead of completely different like they usually do!
