What's been going on...

Well, Alan and I thought David was our only big news for 2012, but we were wrong... way wrong! 

Our house is officially for sale! And you will never guess where we're moving to...

Yup, that's right, we're moving right back where it all began... Aggieland!! And we couldn't be more excited.

You see, it all started a couple months before David was born. We missed living in a smaller town and for a while toyed with the idea of moving back to College Station and having Alan commute to work every day. That was a very short-lived idea, though, once I remembered the super early times Alan left in the mornings and him not arriving home until 7:30-8:00. 

Fast forward a month or two and we find out our church is opening a campus in our area. We got all excited about helping build the Cypress campus and the potential of meeting more families in our area and the thought of moving quickly faded into the background. 

Well, to make a long story short, right around the time David was born, Alan found out about a company in College Station through a friend that works there and ended up interviewing November 2. He was offered a position and accepted after we talked it over (although we didn't really need to talk, we were both excited about the potential of moving back to our favorite city).

Alan will be starting sometime in the beginning of January. He's going to try and find somewhere to stay in January while we're waiting for the sale of our house (he doesn't really want to commute daily), and I'll be visiting my parents for a couple of weeks (so if you're in Texarkana, let me know! I'd love to catch up!!). Our Realtor has said that houses that she lists average about 31 days on the market, which is what we're hoping for! We actually can't close until January 28 (we took advantage of the first time homebuyers tax credit and don't really want to have to pay it back...), but we definitely hope we have a contract on the house much sooner than that. In the meantime, we're looking for houses in College Station! 

So, that's our big news... :) We'll miss all our friends in Cypress, but are also so excited about moving back to our favorite place!
