A week ago today we said goodbye to our first home and moved in with my parents until we find the "home of our now" - the "home of our dreams" is still a few years off. I have been postponing posting anything because I love when people post pictures with their blog entries and I have some pictures from the move and recent events that I would love to get updated on here. One of the kinks with living in someone else's home is that you deal with things that in your own home you wouldn't have to. In this case it is the inability to get our computer connected to the internet. There are too many computers, not enough connections - so I will be picture free for a bit.
So one week in and living in my parent's basement and been great so far. I only have to cook twice a week, my sister, Amy, and her kids are here almost daily providing myself and my kids with endless entertainment, and with Grandma's Halloween decorations and treats Chloe and Noah feel like they are attending an endless party! We have plenty of room in the basement and even a separate entrance, the kids get to wake up and go to bed with hugs and kisses from Grandma and Grandpa, and Joe has someone to beat every night playing cards with my Mom.
We have a house under contract and may be moved in as soon as November 9th, but there are a few details still pending before I feel confident that this will be our home. I look forward to the comforts of being in my own home, but for now we are enjoying ourselves, our no house payment, and our time at Mom and Dad's!

Good luck with everything! Hope all goes well with getting your new house!
Yeah, good luck! Sounds fun. We moved into my husbands' parents' home TWO YEARS AGO and are finally busting out of here. They don't live here but my brother-in-law and his wife/daughter do. Let's just say our proposed closing date of December 10th could not come soon enough! We are building a tract home and I drive buy DAILY to check the progress of the house. Your kids are adorable! Say hi to your folks for me and to Amy.
I didn't know you had one under contract- that's exciting! I hope everything works out the way you want- good luck!
Hooray for parents' basements! We should start a club. May your now-house work out for you! Fingers crossed. We're looking and possibly offering on one next week. It's crazy times.
it's good to get an update even if there are no pictures. Glad everyone is happy at your parents. I am sure they love having you!
Don't know if you have your other house or not - but I know (sort of) the people who are selling this one: http://www.staceybowman.exitutah.com/properties/2_244363/469-N-700-W-Clearfield-Davis-UT-84015#
