The blog has been neglected lately.... but not without good reason. We've moved!
We sold our house in Queen Anne, and bought a place in Bellevue. The whole process was a bit of a whirlwind, as our Queen Anne house wasn't even for sale! The buyers' agent reached out and we let them know we were interested. One thing lead to another, and here we are in the suburbs! The trick was that we had to be out by Halloween, and (see post below) we had a 2 week trip to India in between. BUT, we found exactly the house that we wanted... in the neighborhood that we wanted. We couldn't be happier, and are very blessed by the way everything worked out.
We moved in just in time to take "Princess Jasmine" and "Aladdan" trick or treating in the new neighborhood. But, with everything in boxes, we didn't realize that we didn't have any candy to give out. Sonia unknowingly donated some of her loot to the neighbor kids, at least until one of our neighbors gave us a few bags of candy bars.
We should also give a huuuuuuge thank you to Nana and Papa, who took a week out of their busy lives to come up and help get us settled. They worked incredibly hard getting things packed/unpacked/sorted/organized/re-sorted/re-organized/moved in. So, THANKS!
Moving has been fun for the kids. They have easily adjusted to their new rooms and all of their playing space - and have had fun with it! Here is a school bus we made from one of the furniture boxes!
And here are some more pics from Halloween and moving day. Now that we are much more settled, we will make sure we update the blog more regularly with more pictures!
Good bye Queen Anne :( |
