We bought a house!

I am finally proud to say that we have officially opened a new chapter of our lives.  We are now living 46.69 miles north of where we live now which is about an hour away.  We now live in Fort Lauderdale near the beach, downtown and the airport. We are so excited! I'm not sure if we are more excited that we are living in a really neat location or for the space that we needed but either way it's a great feeling.  I am officially signing the closing papers on August 10th.  Saturday we are going to take a look at the house again to get some measurements of the windows and to get a quote on re-doing the floors in the bedrooms. 

Here are the specs on the house:

One story
4 bdrm/2 bath
2,010 sq. feet
Pool
Has room for Sean's boat on the side of the house
Boat launch is in our neighborhood
10 min. from downtown and airport
3 min. from beach

I especially love the neighborhood because all of the street signs are named after the street signs in Key West and they're so cute! When you drive into our neighborhood you instantly feel like you are at the beach.  It also has a neighborhood park where Hunter can play and we can walk to it. 


The inside needs a little work like I said with the flooring in the bedrooms and some updating and painting so I'm going to spare you the inside photos right now.  I will take before and after photos when we get to that point, I'll post them.

We have so much to do before we move but the good news is that we don't have to be out of our house on the 10th.  The buyers of our house have given us some time in the month of August and if we wanted to we could move out at the end of the month. So its not a complete rush which is great so we can slowly move our stuff in and get organized.  We still have to find a day care for Hunter which we are looking into that this week.  Oh and we still have more boxes to pack! Looks like Daddy will be busy for the next few weeks...=)
