Abke's are on the move!

Thats right.. The Abke's are selling their house!! Why? I'm not sure. When we first moved into this house, we knew it would probably be a 2-5 year keeper. We love this house, but there are things that we would like different. Plus I think we secretly love the change of moving to new houses, fixing them up a little and then moving on to the next. After we added the back patio, we pretty much maxed out on the upgrades. Basically it wouldn't matter how much more we added on or upgraded, we wouldn't get our money back.

With that being said, Sean has always dreamed of owning a house on a big hunk of land.. like a couple of acres. We found a house for sale on 1.6 acres with the MOST beautiful house I have EVER seen!!!! Basically it was the perfect combination of what I always dreamed of + what Sean always dreamed of. It is a really good price, even though that price happens to be a smidge out of our price range... We basically were about to give up on the dream house, but then we were flipping through the channels that night and Sean stopped on the Joel Osteen channel. He had the perfect sermon and we felt like he was talking to us!! It was about dreaming big because we have a BIG God who wants all of our dreams to come true. It was actually hilarious because Sean and I kept looking at each other saying- See?! Joel wants us to get our dream house!! hahaha So we decided to go for it! We listed our house today (thankfully my sister is our realtor) and the sign is in the yard! We are nervous, but we know that if it was meant to be then everything will just fall into place! But in the event that our house sells, and the dream house has been sold to someone else, we found a couple of other options that aren't quite AS dreamy, but still fantastic! I will keep everyone posted about the progress.

Here is the link to our house for sale!! Do you know anyone that wants to move to Brittany Lakes?? :D
