Update

Well it has been a very long time since I have posted, although I have been enjoying reading everyone else's blog!

Our summer has been pretty quiet so far. We have been trying to sell our flat and buy a house, so everything has been up in the air and all our weekends have been devoted to viewings, cleaning, etc. Not sure what made us decided to do this in this property market!

But all the hard work has finally paid off. Last week we accepted an offer on our flat and made a revised offer on the house that we like, which was accepted! We have applied for a mortgage, which is agreed in principle. Subject to surveys and sale contracts going through, we should be moving to a beautiful 4 bedroom detached house in October. It is seriously our dream house and we are so excited. They have taken it off the website, so I can't post the link, but I will definitely post some pictures if/when we move in.

We are also excited because our holiday has finally come round. We leave tomorrow on a fun-filled 2 week break with the Jensen family in DisneyWorld and Hilton Head, SC (with J&I stopping for a 2 day anniversary break in Savannah). We have all be planning and making itineraries for several months now, and I, of course, have been counting down the days as I always do! Can't believe we are finally on our way!

Anyway - I will be back in mid-August with details and pictures of our trip. Hopefully I will also know more by then as to whether our house purchase is going to go through.
