Oh, Heeeeyyy....Remember Me? Oh, And...Pics of Our Old Condo.

O. M. G.  I know.  It's been a minute since I last posted on here.  But listen, I have really good excuses this time for not keeping up with le blog.  Firstly, we were busy getting our house ready to sell (I just made that sound so simple and easy, but anyone who has ever done this before knows how much time and energy it takes!).  And it did.  In a matter of just a few days!  The housing market for sellers is hot, hot, hot right now.  I was also in charge of planning my high school reunion in the midst of packing up our house (and BOY, did we have a lot more than I thought), moving things into storage, and moving into our temporary home in Virginia.  We have also been house hunting for our new place, and despite making 4 offers (I think 4? I have kinda lost track by this point), which also includes backing out of a place we were Under Contract on (drama drama), we have yet to find our next home.  I'm a bit restless but still hopeful.  I'm also excited about what the future holds.  We have been asking God to guide us, and I can't wait to see Him make all our paths straight and land us in the home He has prepared for us.

I'm attaching photos here of our last condo in the Southwest neighborhood.  The neighborhood truly grew on me for so many wonderful reasons (tightly knit community, close proximity to the National Mall, Capitol, metro stations, SW Waterfront, retail, etc).  OK, so I lived RIGHT IN FRONT OF the 1-95 Ramp, but hey, it was Home.  Even tonight, I watched the DC fireworks through a local TV station's broadcast, and I remembered how just last year, we simply walked a few blocks down our street and had an awesome view of the Washington Monument and the fireworks show from the sidewalk there!

Farewell, Bright Yellow Condo!  Now...who wants to guess what color house God has in store for us in the future?!  ;)  HA!
