Let the Packing begin!

Nothing like packing a house up with a two year old!!! Wow! What an experience!
So many of you know but some do not... We have sold our house! Thank you LORD!! We have been planning this move for basically since Tucker was born but just had to find the right time. Our big fella needs a big yard and nice driveway to ride in as well as a bit more room inside. We listed back at the beginning of February. Things were pretty slow at first. Basically no showings for the first month. As March arrived, so did buyers! We cleaned and cleaned and tried so hard for various showings and even an open house! Yet, the one day Tucker and Mommy have a bum day and the house is a mess, a realtor pulls up to our house unexpectedly. Tucker and Mommy waited in the back yard barefoot as the house was shown (a MESS)! By evening we had an offer and contract! Isn't that how it goes? Well, by any means, we are very thankful for our house selling in just two months! Unfortunately because it all happened so fast, we have not found the house of our dreams (or even a just right house) to move to. So for now since we have to be out by May 13, we are moving to storage and rotating stays with family while we desperately search for our next house! We know it will work out and know that the Lord will take care of us and when it is time, we will have our new home! If there is one thing we have learn in the past year, it is we are not in control! So, we'll keep you posted about our where abouts! Just call us the Traveling Rhodes!
