FOR SALE

As we prepare to begin a new chapter of our life, we must close on this one! Here are the pictures for our online listing and brochures. We can't believe that we are actually selling it! As most of you know, if was a very difficult decision. Our plan is to feel out the market through October and then rent it if we don't feel that we are getting the offers that would compensate us for all of the renovations. Sometime in the near future, I will post before and after pictures together. It is astonishing to see the old pictures from our walk-through when we purchased this condo 3 years ago.

The Cruise

Last week, we enjoyed a 7-night cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Adventurer of the Seas. We departed out of San Juan, PR and made 5 more stops on islands in the Southeast Caribbean. I will blog about these islands soon, as they were more interesting than the ship.

Thanks to my mother-in-law, we were able to leave the kids behind and spend some well-deserved time together. With all of Steve's travels this year and the pressures of a large move, it was nice to forget about all that we left behind and just have a great time! We enjoyed first-class dinners while they were were hot, only cut up our own meat, sat and talked for as long as our conversation lasted and slept until our bodies told us that it was time to get up. It was completely rejuvenating.

There was a professional photographer around every corner and so we took advantage of the time that we had to actually get ourselves ready! This was the first time that we have had professional pcitures of us taken since we were married more than 7 years ago! Now if we can just brave a family photo...
