All packed up....

and no where to go! We decided to put our house on the market in hopes of capturing a buyer before the New Home Owners tax credit expires on April 30th. In order to list our house, we have a very large "Honey Do List" prepared by our real estate agent that needs to be completed. Ryan and I have put in many hours of overtime aka after Addie is asleep deep cleaning the house, packing up personal items, decluttering the closets, and the best is yet to come- painting! When we bought the house, in 2007, the master bedroom was sage green and white. According to Lynda (real estate guru), two toned rooms send the message of work needed to a potential buyer. With that said, our bathroom is also two-toned and will needed a fresh coat of paint. Lucky for us!! The best news is that Addie's room received a thumbs up (it is pink and white) because it is a nursery!!

If we can bust out all this painting this weekend, the house will be on the market by early next week! If anyone is looking for a cute 3 bedroom, 1 bath house close to the University in Missoula- make us a deal!!

Here is the funny thing about listing our house- we don't have a place to move to! We would give anything to be back in Idaho, but Ryan really wants one of us to have a job lined up before we move back. I agree with him, but at the same time know that we will figure it out. We are currently applying for all sorts of jobs in the Wood River Valley as well as Boise. Our fingers are crossed that the house sells in the next few months and an excellent job opportunity arises for Ryan or me. Either way, we are excited for the next stage of our life and all that comes along with change.
