Time just keeps ticking away; and honestly, we just haven't been able to get over to Vance to work on the house much. Once school started back in August, our schedule got crazy. I went back to work for the first time since becoming a mom nearly 9 years ago...I coached a middle school volleyball team (conference champions, by the way - woohoo!!)...and the kids were involved this semester in ballet, soccer, and cross country. There's not much progress to report on; although, I do need to catch everyone up on the developments over the summer (floors, kitchen, trim - look for new posts soon).
The biggest update to report, though, is that we've switched gears and have a new plan! Since we've wasted so much time getting Vance finished, we ate up all of the time we planned to have it on the market to sell. Therefore, we're about to get ourselves into a sticky situation with two house payments. So we made the decision about a month ago to go ahead and sell our Browntown house (please click here to see listing) and move to Vance. So far the interest has been good!! We'll still keep Vance for sale and just move again one day to the next adventure!
I'm really excited about returning to the Highland Park neighborhood, living in an old house again, and being close to downtown. There's definitely been something about it that I've missed these last few years.
