So...

We bought a townhouse. It's a done deal as of today around 4:30. It only took us a couple of years to find the right place. We are happy, stressed, and excited. Our new home is in a different county so it will be a brand new start for us. New starts are nice, but I will miss familiarity.

We visited our new place today. Mei Li seems to be happy about the new place, especially because there are tulips out front. She told Steve, "I should sleep in the yellow room and Stephen should sleep in the blue room." Too bad that neither color is staying.

We need to start packing, but I also need to pick out paint colors and carpet. Those decisions are turning out to be less fun than I anticipated. There are just way too many options.

Anyway, that's our big news. Our first home purchase. Looks like we'll be Virginians for a while. What a happy thing.

Yay!! We are SO happy it finally went through! But we are really going to miss you guys! Lilly will definately have Mei Li withdrawals and I am going to miss Stephen yelling, "Jenny! Jenny! Jenny!".
We will have to come out and visit you after you move in.

Also, bring your kids over anytime you need to pack or clean or whatever. I would LOVE to help in any way that I can.
