When a little Change isn't Enough!

Some Changes in life come very fast and you don't even realize they are coming. For Molly and me this is how are lives have been for the last month or so. After Christmas we were enjoying how our lives were going, nothing big was going on, everything was status quo. However, that was not going to last; while we had been at my parents house over Christmas my father asked Molly to work for him. Now he has done this before but each time he did he wanted us to move to Reno but this time he told he that she could work from home. So once we were home we prayed about it and were a little overwhelmed because we knew that this was a big change. So Molly finally decided that this would be a good opportunity and so she agreed to take the job.


Now if that had been all to the story I would have stopped typing and you could have continued upon your way but this isn't all so keep reading. After she took the job we realized two things; our current house is not really bug enough for her to have a proper office area to work, and that with this new job we could probably afford a house. So we decided to start looking into buying a home, we decided that while we love living in Oregon we would get more house for the money (and save money with no income tax) if we moved to Vancouver. So not only did we deicide to move but to move to a different state! So we met with a mortgage guy and got a Realtor and last Sunday we found a house we really like in our price range. It was heads and shoulder above any other house we had seen and it was really nice. So we decided to make an offer on it and after a little negotiating the offer was accepted and we had the home inspection yesterday! Now we just wait on the money and we could be moving into our new house by the middle of March. Oh did I mention that we have been doing all this while Molly has been gone during the week, for the last 3 weeks she has been flying to Reno for training at her new job. So she flys down on Sunday and comes back on Friday. It has just been crazy!

Here are some pictures of the house; now keep in mind that the current owners are still living there so all their stuff will be gone but you can at least get some ideas:
