Well............We have a new adventure. It is going to be a WILD adventure. I am very nervous, but very excited at the same time. Let me start at the beginning.
Our house was not on the market, it was not for sale. But, we have always said we would sell it if it was the right person and situation. So the day after Christmas that opportunity presented itself. A week later we had a deal, and our house was under contract. We closed on January 25, and have 30 days from that day to get out. Whew! That happened fast!
So, the next question was what do we do from here? Bo grew up in TN at what we refer to as Wildwood. He has always wanted to go back, and we have said we would just as soon as we could build. So, we weighed our options, and decided we could do just that. So, that is our plan we are going to build the fourth house at Wildwood. The other three houses are occupied by his mom and dad, his sister, and his Aunt Cindy and Uncle John. We are excited to be joining them.
So, then came the question: "Where do we live until we can get something built?" We again looked at our options which were basically: rent, live with a family member, or buy a trailer. So we bought a trailer! This is just not any trailer, it is a very run down small single wide trailer. So we have been spending the last few weeks totally redoing the trailer to make it our home for the next 8 months or so. We have ripped out carpet and sub flooring, totally painted the whole thing, we are replacing all the light fixtures, and laying new floor. We had to do some minor repairs to some shelving and cabinets. And it still lacks a REALLY GOOD CLEANING. Right now we are waiting on the new flooring and the water and electricity to be hooked up. Our tentative move in date is next weekend Feb 16th. The trailer is now at Wildwood sitting about 50 yards behind where our new house will be built. 2 adults, a 2 year old, and 4 dogs should be interesting in such a small space. WISH ME LUCK!
Below are a few little sneak peek picts from our new adventure.
