Well, it's official. We are completely out of our house in Waterloo; we close on it at 4:30 this afternoon. I usually don't get attached to things very easily, but I must say I've been a bit sad since we left the house the other day. It probably has something to do with the facts that it was the home we brought Grady and Ella home to, and we haven't found a new house yet! We are still ready to move on, though.
Things have been a little crazy to say the least. Since we haven't found a house yet, we are moving in with some friends in Manchester. Stephen's been in the process of finishing their basement for them the past few months, so we'll have a space downstairs complete with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and a big living room. There's also a big walk in closet that might turn into the twins' "room" :) Grady, Ella, and I have had lots of long nights with dad leaving straight from work to work on the basement! It is finally ready for us to move in this weekend which works out perfectly. It has a few finishing touches that need to be done, but those can be taken care of while we live there. We are definitely ready to be settled in one place for a while! We have been doing so much driving back and forth which needless to say, is very difficult to do with 2 one-year-olds! Now, we're just praying for a good house to come on the market sometime soon! We feel so blessed to have such a great place to stay while we look for a house.
The twins just had their one-year pictures taken a few weeks ago and they turned out great! Be
looking for a post of some of those pics soon :)
Bye, bye little story book house :)

I remember leaving the house where both the boys were born.... and moved 3 more times since then(yuck!!) It is so sad to leave a place with so many wonderful memories and SO hard to move with very small ones too : ) I feel your pain! But I know God will provide for you, Stephen and the kids like He always has!! Love you!
Its official- you and your family are missed. I hope you find just the right house soon and that your new neighbors realize how blessed they are that you joined the neighborhood.

WOW, the basement sounds like a suite! I look forward to hearing about your adventures in Manchester :)
