House for sale

I should probably say home for sale, since it's not just a house to us. Yes, we put our house on the market. We've been here for almost six years and decided it's time for a change and a little more room. Not only that, but we have a nice playset in our backyard that we won't need in a few years. We don't want to have to take it down, so hopefully the new owner's children can use it.
We're fortunate in that we didn't have to go far to find a realtor that we can trust. My Uncle John is a realtor, but since he helped us with our last move, we've hired Jason's best friend since 3rd grade to do the job. Some of you may know Jim. He's the guy that gave the greatest best man speech ever at our wedding. Jim was over today putting the lock box on the door and taking pictures. The for sale sign is to arrive later today.
Jason and I understand that the market is pretty poor right now, but we also know that if jour home sells that we could get a really good deal on a new house. So we'll see what happens. I'll keep you posted!

I wish you better luck than we've had in this market. It's been one year since we listed this guy:
