Goodbye First Home

(This is the only picture I had with full resolution!)

 I wanted to say for journal sake, farewell to our townhome in AZ. We bought it the fall before Zack was born, October 2009. We lived in it till August 2011. We have rented it out since. We decided it was a good time to sell it when our tenants lease was up this year, and found out we would be selling it a little sooner than we thought since she only signed 9 month instead of a year (we were never informed of this switch!). So, we jumped on the market in April, and were under contract within a week. It went so smoothly even down to the realtor we chose. She happened to be an aunt of a neighbor down in Mesa, who recently sold their townhome as well. We officially closed at the beginning of June. It was our first home we bought, not really all that sad to say goodbye, but still had some good memories there. Very good ones! As we were signing our closing documents at the bank the notary was just watching as Dan and I sifted threw the papers, reading, signing, and meanwhile our 3 kids by our ankles on the floor. When we finished she gathered up the papers and said, "I just wanted you to know, while I was watching, I was super impressed by how well you two work together. I just thought you should know." I am pretty sure I love that lady, and yes we are getting to a point where I feel like he can read my mind! Just joking! It was a nice complement and I was taken back by how sincere she was. I am blessed to have someone who complements me so well and that is so easy to work with!
So long to our first home, you treated us well!
