Arizona bound!

so... we're about 99% sure we're heading to arizona on may 11th (we're still waiting on the "official" details from shawn's company - say a prayer we get them tomorrow!)... we have that date because it's the date we're closing on our house! we sold it in about a month, without a realtor, and for 15% more than we paid two years ago! we're pretty proud of all the work we've done and feel very blessed that we will get back what we've invested into it in this market!

so... on to more exciting stuff!

we went out to phoenix to visit (shawn's first time - he loved it!) and find a place to live... we will be living here until we find a house.... which hopefully will be in the next seven months!

we did a little sight-seeing, but mainly drove around different parts of town to get a feel for where we might want to buy a house. shawn also spent a day at his new office and met some of his new coworkers. when i picked him up, he was like a giddy school-boy... we're very excited about the move!

shawn was only there for the weekend... we stayed in this funky hotel (very reasonable) in scottsdale.

and then i headed down to agritopia to spend a few days with my friend jill from college... our girls had so much fun together! i'm so excited to be able to see them more often and to let the girls "grow up together"

i drove back yesterday and today and came home to a mess! shawn started "packing" - it looks like the house exploded! we have so much to do before may 11th! shawn did sell his truck today (even made some money on it!) and we've sold some of our furniture... we're having a moving sale next weekend (may 1st - 3rd)... so come by and take a look... we may have something you just can't live without! and tell your friends too! 1815 salem st 75061

ok... i'm off to watch a couple of episodes of lost! i'll try to get some pics of the little darling up soon, but life's pretty crazy right now!

We're praying for you during this transition. It's great that your house sold! Good luck with packing. I hope you're as blessed by your friends as we were -- it can be a huge help to have someone watch the baby while you pack.
