Okay, so I've been gone for a while.  Well, no, I've been home... but I've been absent from my good friends here on AR.  And I'm trying to be back now.

A while ago, I posted a couple times about getting ready to move, and now we are ready to take the plunge.

I want to invite you to move with me.  If you've never purchased a home before, you will get a feel for the ups and downs of buying in the Central New York Market.  If you have, you'll sympathize with our plight... and if you're an agent, you will get an interesting story to follow.

I have to catch you up first, but it's more than one post's worth of information, so here we go!

We live in a 924 square foot ranch in North Syracuse.  It's a great little house and we refinished the basement over the winter, so we really love it now.  But we are outgrowing it with our 3 and 1 year old daughters, so it's time to make a change.  Here are some pictures:

Our living room, complete with our eccentric but oh-so- HGTV red couch.

Our kitchen- actually there is more space here than it looks like.

Our basement rec room, and my sanity saver when the kids need a place to play while I work!

 So, that gives you a taste of what we are leaving... or trying to leave.  I don't know how the story ends, but look for the next chapter soon.
