We had the best laid plan complete with forwarding address and had actually started forwarding some stuff there. We had every intention of moving into that little house in Leavenworth, KS...
Then we got there...
It was way smaller than advertised and therefore expected. It had a couple of potential safety issues and there were decorating issues we could have lived with for just 10 mos.
Mom and I arrived first with the boys...and I wasn't over the moon. The more we looked, the more we saw. Our movers finished loading in like 6 hours - we were amazed. So Matt drove up Wednesday evening/night and we went to look at the house together (I had already warned him we might have an issue or 12...) at 1030 PM!
We checked out on post housing. They were SUPER nice - put us right back on the list where we belonged (when we declined housing last week...) and off we went to look at these homes. They are old - 100 years old and historic. As we walked to the 2nd house we were sold instantly when we saw that across the street there is a park - a whole playground area. It feels bigger than it probably is and we're still working out the functionality of it - but it was already a much better decision.
I promise to post pics and send everyone our new address!!
