For sale...



Just thought I would mention (so you don't hear it from someone else & get offended that I didn't tell you) that we put our house up for sale the week before the Parade of Homes. Don't worry Mom-we aren't going far. :0) We had always planned to sell & build at least once more & thought we would put it up now & see what happens. Not to mention that lot prices & building prices are dropping a ton. I have mixed feelings: I love our home & the area that we live in, but of course it would be great to get more equity in our next home. Plus, I would like to get settled in the home where we will stay before the kids get too far in school. So now is the time, but we are in no hurry, we will just wait & see what happens...

I have a great idea! Sell your house...sell all your belongings...and give your kids " the gift of Spanish!" Please? :0) (Come on, you know you want to!)
