++Let the countdown begin!++

I was too superstitious to post anything else about our new house earlier. It appears we are full steam ahead now. We officially no longer own the house in Memphis as of yesterday and our closing for our new house will be next Thursday. Exactly one month after we left Memphis. I said we were efficient, didn't I?
Here's a sneak peak of the new place. These were the professional photos from the listing.
Entry (sad that when you have kids you see a space like this and think about how much fun the kids will have on their little bikes...it will never look this pristine again!)

Living Room

Kitchen (in typical Pacyna fashion we have some ideas for changes we're going to make in this area.)
Family roomDining roomMaster bedroomMaster bathroom. I think this was the room that sealed the deal for me.
Girl's room (aka Claire's room)Boy's room (aka Wyatt's room...I'm really hoping he doesn't get attached to the paint color because it is not long for this world.)"Bonus room" or loft. Kind of a cool set-up as this ends up being a little wing for the kids that closes off with a door. Wyatt's favorite part of the house: the lockers with keys. He refers to it as the "key house". Thank goodness they are from Ikea because we may be buying a few of those when he is heartbroken to see they are gone when we move in!

They say when you walk into the house you should buy you will know it right away because it will just feel right. That was the case in our house in Minneapolis and totally the case here. The Memphis house worked but this house is US. We can't wait to call it home!

Does this home have a basement? Just curious.

Nope--not a lot of basements here. It's really not as big as the photos make it look. 300 sq. ft. less than Memphis. Good thing there is a 3-car garage because there is also not a lot of storage.
