I am a little embarrassed that (with the exception of yesterday's post) I have not updated the blog in 6 months! In my defense, things have been a little crazy around here. You would have thought I had enough on my plate with taking care of a toddler and a newborn. Nah, let's add prepping and selling a house, house hunting, building a new house, packing, moving the majority of our belongings into a storage building, moving the rest of our belongings to a rental, and all of this was done around and during the Holidays!
That's right! We no longer live in our 3 story townhome, Hallelujah! We listed and sold that baby within 7 days. Our closing date was December 2nd (yep, the Monday after Thanksgiving) so we had 6 weeks to pack and find a new home. Which leads to house hunting. To make a long story short, we found a home we liked, made an offer which wasn't accepted and with the limited inventory that was on the market at the time, we then decided to build. We were so excited! We never even considered building a home and now we were, but that left us with one rather huge problem...where are we going to live until mid-April?
Enter our heroes, my brother-in-law and his wife, Phil & Amy. They have a one bedroom rental unit in the bottom floor of their home. The week before we had to be out of our townhome their current renters moved out! So they so graciously offered to let us stay until our new home was ready. Thank ya Jesus!
So we are currently in temporary housing in Mt. Juliet until April when we will officially move to our new little home in the Bent Creek Subdivision in Nolensville.
So here are a few pictures from the past few months:
Happy Fall Ya'll

I feel for you! We are in the exact same boat. Got an offer on our house in less than a week. Movers come this Wednesday. We close right after Christmas and we still have to find a new house. And it's the holiday season! That is great that you guys can stay with your inlaws. We are renting a furnished VRBO (vacation rental buy owner) at a super discounted rate until we can close on a new house. Good luck with your building process and I hope you guys enjoy the holidays!
