Goodbye Big White House, Hello Small Yellow House!

It's the end of an era. Jeremy and I have officially sold our beautiful first home...Here's a pic... R.I.P. White House.OK, in all seriousness, we had so many mixed emotions about selling the house. We knew when we bought it and did a ton of work to it that it would only be in it a couple of years. But, it was the house that we got married in and started our little family. It was a great house...it will be missed!! I think we're going to miss the neighborhood the most. I only broke down once during the whole move---it was when I saw the house completely empty...ugh, it made my stomach and heart hurt so bad!!! BUT, we sold it to a wonderful family with 2 kids and I know it's going to be in good hands. And the check we got at the closing was worth it :)
So, now we are in a little rental house about a mile from the white house. It's a great little place but the key word is LITTLE. But, it has an awesome backyard and the dogs are enjoying every romp outside!
Future plans: we are trying to close on a hillside lot in central Fayetteville (fingers crossed) and then eventually we will build on that. But, for now, the little yellow house is doing its job: we're cozy and blessed.
