WE CLOSED!

We are excited to announce that after over 14 months of trials and tribulations, a whole cast of shady characters we had to deal with and waiting, waiting, and more waiting...we are finally owners of a house and piece of land in Telford, PA. This is a long story but in a nutshell this property had a questionnable past that needed to be sorted out before we could purchase the place - 2 foreclosures and a bankruptcy being the biggest obstacles we had to get past. As of approximately 1PM yesterday afternoon, though, we own it! Now we are focusing on getting the house and land fixed up and also selling our current house.

Andrew and I were there until late last night cleaning and will be there again this week to get some odds and ends done. He plans to start construction of some improvements in the house we plan to make this Saturday. In the midst of scrubbing and disinfecting last night, I forgot to take any photos of us looking our finest :) but I will be tracking our progress going forward on a blog that I created last summer when this whole process started.
There is a link under my Friends and Family section called Our Big Move. Or, keep checking our progress at http://martinbigmove.blogspot.com We have our work cut out for us these next few months and we plan to move in in Novemeber. We will keep you posted and we hope you all will come and visit us very soon!
