This is the exciting news that I have wanted to share. We sold our house in New Mexico! What's that you say? We own a house in New Mexico? Well, we did, but not anymore! Today we close, never to return to that house again.
When we moved to Arizona four years ago, our original plan was to sell the house and think of it no more. But... it turns out the economy isn't looking so good these days and no one was interested in buying our house. We ended up renting the house instead. The house had been occupied pretty much the whole time until May, when our last renter decided to move out. We freaked out, drove to New Mexico, painted, shampooed, and vaccuumed until the house looked presentable enough to try and sell. We placed the house on the market on Wednesday. Thursday afternoon we had an offer. Little Miss Renter moving out was probably the best thing that could have happened to us. Let's take a little walk down memory lane, as I'm feeling nostalgic right now.
Bye house! I really will miss you!

Scary Pictures of the Fire
It looks like Los Alamos is going to be alright. The fire is still raging. It's the biggest fire in recorded New Mexico history at over 100,000 acres burned in less than a week and only 4% contained so far. But my hometown has been spared (for now). The winds have shifted and changed course. Still anything can happen. Most residents were hoping to make it home over the weekend but that's not going to be the case. My parents are fine and they are staying with family.
(This picture is the scariest for me. You can see how the fire was literally on top of the town.)
