Fezler Blog and Photos: Big Changes

With the news of the new addition to our family - we decided it was time for a move. We love our house, we love our house so much (although for a few months here during the terrible heat, with no A/C - we hated our house... a lot). I love the open floor plan - how close it is to everything in Boulder (we walk or ride our bikes to parks, trails, pearl street, music class, whole foods etc., etc.). But there are also some things that aren't going to work for us. One bathroom is one thing - having to have a home office for me to work is another as it means we don't have a bedroom for that upcoming addition to our family, or for any visiting guests. And our one car garage is filled with odds and ends and bikes, snowboards, and strollers.

But, we've never used or needed a baby monitor. I love my gas cooktop and huge counters - and the backyard is perfect for playing in the snow - tossing bean bags during a BBQ, or just playing in the sprinklers. We know its time to move on, but we do love our little house in Boulder.

So, in late July we put our house on the market. Sadly, around that time the inventory of our perspective areas totally dwindled (apparently people love to finalize moves in the suburbs before school starts). We got an offer - and it was great, but sadly the couple making the offer got cold feet and backed out during the inspection process. Probably better in the long run, as there are still no houses we love on the market. So - keep your fingers crossed for us!

Have you ever told a story, or just reminisced about the house you grew up in? I didn't want to forget our house, so I took a few photos while everything was clean - so we can look back someday and say "Aweee, our first house. that house was the best". Also, for those of you who haven't had a chance to visit. This was our house, hopefully our next one will have a basement and lots of room for guests!
