Let me see if I can catch up. Although I'm sure the people reading this are on Facebook too and know already!
We bought a camper. Sold the boat, bought a camper. Scott decided to sell the boat because for some reason thelake this year was FULL OF DRAMA. It wasn't even any fun anymore. I didn't enjoy going out there unless it was without Boston. most of the reason behind that is because when I have him out there I don't really like to drink (makes me nervous since he doesn't know how to swim yet). Course, when I don't drink and everyone else is hammered....its not fun, I get annoyed and I go home with Boston. Yay. Fun. Scott was tired of all the drama too plus a large number of his friends just go camping instead, included his brother and his mom. So, after we sold the boat Scott got a wild hair and decided we were going to go to the RV Show at the Fairgrounds. I assumed we were just wasting time, looking around to see if we like anything and then discuss it further. ....I was wrong....
We found one we really liked that suited us for what we wanted to do. Big enough for other to come stay with us but not like a million dollar house on wheels. They really aren't that expensive either, surprisingly (cheaper than my car!!) We had a pretty busy fall but we able to take the camper out two or three times before seasons end. We got it broke in and bought thing specifically for it so it'll be a nice little place to stay. Boston also loves it, much more than the boat. His cousins can come out and play, theres usually a playground close by, we can bring the dogs, we can go fishing, so many more things to do than on the boat. (Although, I realyl do like the tan I would always get).
I fully plan on taking that bad boy up to Green Bay sometime next season, if only to tailgate. I'm so excited for nicer weather so we can get out and enjoy it some more. Here's a pic of the inside....
On the way to the campgrounds there were a lot of nice houses and land for sale. This sparked Scott's interest in looking for a new house, or building a new one. He wanted to be more in the country and have a little more land. I started looking, because I was bored at work, not really thinking....like many of Scott's ideas....that this would actually go anywhere. Weeeeeellllllllllllllllll....it just so happens that I found a house in northern Bondurant that is absolutely GORGEOUS! Four bedroom, 2.5 bath, unfinished basement, almost one full acre on a corner lot, access to the nearby "lake", on a culdesac with lots of kids around. Ugh! Love it!
Scott absolutely fell in love!! And so did I!! We set up a time to view it. Took a tour, loved the owners and put in an offer. They accepted and we put our house up for sale as soon as we could. It is now listed on Zillow and FSBOhomes.com.
The hard part is going to be selling our house. We have no basement and I have a feeling that will be our downfall. The sellers didn't give a time frame for us to sell but obviously they aren't going to wait forever. :) Hopefully spring will bring the right buyer our way and we can get things moving.
