Time to say goodbye

Well, we accepted one of the two offers on our house last night. Only $2k less than asking price, and probably a good $10k over what we and our broker thought the house was worth...

I have such mixed feelings! I'm so attached to this house - we gutted it and made it into exactly what we wanted, by ourselves. We got married while living here (twice!), I passed the bar in this house, we got pregnant in this house, and brought our daughter home to this house. I have such memories here... it's going to be so hard to move out Chat Icon

Here's one last look of our little masterpiece Chat Icon :

We need a bigger house. And hubby was just itching to do another rehab. We found a gigantic fixer-upper (3100 sq.ft and half an acre) in a good neighborhood that we just couldn't pass up...
