On the Move


Things around here have been busier than normal. We decided to pack up and move to Massachusetts in October. Our house didn't seem to be going anywhere and I didn't want Matt to have to commute during the winter. We found a vacation rental in Gloucester, Ma, packed what we could fit into the boat/Matt's truck and we said good bye to our friends and our home. We settled into Gloucester just fine. It is a beautiful place and the people are very friendly. The boys adjusted to a new school rather well.
Our house on Crooked Lake sold...and so did the furniture! We closed on December 1st. We began our house hunt here in MA some time in Nov. We found a house rather quickly in a town called Scituate. It is about 25 miles south of Boston. Matt is pumped that he can take a ferry to work! I am thrilled that there are a bunch of beaches near by.
We close on January 26. Until then, we are furniture shopping like crazy. Furnishing an entire home is a lot like registering for your wedding. It is exciting for about an hour. After that, it just becomes overwhelming. I will post more pics once she is ours!
