On the move

Every two or so years, we get a strong urgency to move. Sometimes it’s because of opportunity and one of us pushes the other (Salt Lake to Austin). It’s also been a desire to “grow up” a bit (from our Belaire Apartment to Millpoint Condo). Move to our current house was a fantastic move -- we really like it here. The neighbors are great, our house is beautiful, and our backyard is big and landscaped.

But when the urge comes, we always follow it. Now, I wish I were about to tell you that we’re moving to Stuttgart or Berlin...but that’s coming in a few years, so practice your surprised face.

We are under contract with the new house -- it’s beautiful, modern, closer to the things we like to do, very private, and I am so excited.

It shares a lot with a 1938 bungalow -- this is a Austin thing they do -- but the lot is so long that they previously had a huge garage back there. Here are some more pictures...

So...that will be our home for the next few years...the “treehouse” if you will. We have an open house for the current place tomorrow and we’ve done about 5 showings so far. The kids are great, they get into their travel cages and we drive to the park and sit until an hour passes. Sometimes, it feels like a part of a mechanical wheel and suddenly it’s easy to get this done because it’s a process.

Oh, yes, Grete -- she’s a big girl already and doing great!

Tschüss!
