The best month

We just passed out first month in the new house, and we are so happy. I can't describe the feeling. Its like when you're on vacation and you just walk around and check things out, and see where things are. Its not a big house, but its big to us and we spend our time trying to make things 'just so.'

Our New House

Closing Friday was a breeze!

Thanks to everyone we worked with: Jill, Kara & Rhonda with Long & Foster Bethesda, Travis and Peggy at Wells Fargo.

Jenn and I went in to closing Friday at 10, and we were done by 11. Saturday was Moving day and was busy from start to finish.

Four days till closing

This week is advancing like the clink clink of a roller coaster working up that first hill. I've got a mix of anticipation and nerves as we close in on settlement set for the end of the week. Tonight is our final walkthrough. I've checked with the mortgage company, and it looks like they are all set in terms of the forms they need from us. We've made plans fro the movers, and the pets.

As I walk the dog this week, I've been thinking about all the time I have spent on Capitol Hill, and in the city. I think its going to be strange to live somewhere else.
