SOLD!

Honestly, we didn't think this day would ever come.   Steve and I (and our Realtor Susan) are still in a bit of shock.  What started as an innocent bike ride on a beautiful Saturday morning with my husband last Fall turned into a grand scheme of putting our house on the market, moving into the city and transitioning from a 2100 sq. ft. house to a 1466 sq. ft. condo.  After 7 months of cleaning my house like an obsessed freak, being very crabby with my kids and husband, getting lost for open houses and more showings than I care to remember, in a still terrible housing market, we sold our house!  The perfect house we never planned to leave.  The house we paid too much for.  Our house in the wonderful city of St. Louis Park, on the rockin "south-side" of Alabama Ave, surrounded by beautiful neighbors and "blue ribbon" schools.  I'll explain more behind our seemingly crazy decision later.  

For now, we have exactly two weeks and two days to sell most of our stuff, pack and move.  Follow our journey as we downsize and transition into a smaller space in the heart of Minneapolis.  We'll share the good, the bad and the ugly.
