Update

Things have changed quite a bit since I last blogged about our move. The house we were planning to buy with the sweet pool was broken in to and after a very scary week we were able to get out of the contract with them. Not without them threatening to sue us first. They ended up keeping our earnest money but finally agreed to release us from the contract. Last Friday our house here in Colorado officially went under contract too. The offer wasn't great but to be able to sell our house in a down market is a blessing. As I speak the movers are packing up our belongings and about shut me down on my computer. We have another house in mind and as is consistent with our history, it's a repo and the bank hasn't let us know if they've accepted our offer. It usually takes a while for them to get back to you so we know not to be too impatient yet. Patience is NOT one of my greatest qualities so we'll see how we sweat this one out. We'll be staying in a condo on Lake Conroe until we find our home so at least we should have fun while we're "homeless".

That is too bad about that house... what a mess! I know you will still find the perfect house for your family and things will work out. Staying in a condo will be fun and maybe even like a vacation? Glad that your CO house is under contract. It is a beautiful home and whoever is getting it will have some pretty awesome neighbors!

What a tough break! Maybe this whole thing has happened for a reason and the house you finally get will be a perfect fit for you. Wishing you much luck and a safe move!
