au revoir America!

Happy New Year!

We spent the last few days of 2012 preparing for and anxiously awaiting our move to France! The days were filled with a lot of organized piles, stress, phone calls, anticipation, goodbyes and a final visit to one of Houston's classiest establishments to ring in the new year!

Happy 2013 from Darkhorse!

The reality of the move didn't really hit me until we left the house keys on the counter and we hopped into a car to the airport... but Mark got the touch of reality a little early when he said goodbye to his first true love, Nance! I don't think the saleswoman knew how special she was to him because a few words out of her mouth included...
"You know they don't make a Dodge Stratus anymore, right? And when they did... they didn't sell well."

Nance had a hard time letting go and wouldn't eject the Bob Seager CD
 
After all the trash bags were thrown, we found two American flags from our Olympic party in the garage and decided it was only appropriate to snap a photo! It was a sad, but tear-free goodbye to Unit 22 - our first house together!


 
And for those of you who were asking - YES, our house SOLD a week before Christmas!
