Why we have been MIA...

Well, to make it short, we moved! We decided back in beginning of June to sell and spent the entire month getting the house ready. John could no longer stand his 3 hour daily commute and neither could I.  I put it on the market at the beginning of July and got 3 offers in 3 days! We were under contract by day 3. We closed less than a month later on July 31st! It was my 1st sale and I think we did great! It is the BEST time ever to sell and we were so happy that the appraisal was just over their offer (it was also above asking!) We now live closer to Johns new job in Alpharetta. We are only 3 miles from his office! We will miss our friends and neighbors so much. 
It was a very difficult decision and we questioned it up until we moved into our new house, which I actually lived in for 2 years as a little girl. My Mom kept it as a rental home the last 20+ years and now we are renting it. With our home selling so fast, this allows us to take our time and see where we want to buy. We LOVE how much smaller this house is and we have already decided we now want a ranch. Lol. To go from 4 stories, 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms....to a 3-2 ranch has been like a dream come true. Lol. Who knew!?!?  We also LOVE the convenience of everything we can think of being so close, including our parents and friends from high school. Grandma and Pop are now only 3 miles away!
