SOLD!

So the day after we left San Diego my parents put their house on the market. It sold in 6 DAYS!!! That is pretty much unheard of in California right now.
As EXCITED as I am to have them moving here it is bitter sweet....
It is weird to look at the house I grew up in, and still consider home, with a "for sale" sign in the front yard!


Weird that we wont be going there 3-4 times a year....that is medicine to me!
We have already agreed that we WILL go at least once a year all together. We cant live with out getting a dose of that fresh ocean air.
The things that are so great are the my parents will not miss out on all the little things now! I dont have to picture my mom alone on her birthday sitting at the table reading her cards over and over by herself! That is the most important part! Not me mention what a great financial move it is!
So over all we are THRILLED that they sold their house so fast and are going to be heading this way very soon!!! YEAH!!!!!

That's so exciting that your parents are moving closer! How fun for your kids! We go to the beach every year because my grandma has to get her beach fix in for the year since she grew up in Florida!Don't think that ever leaves your blood, the beach that is!
