This weekend we wandered down to my dad's house. It was nice! Little One loves her Pop Pop, Tante and Aunt Caitie. It has lead to an interesting situation, indeed! My sister and her fiance have moved out of the home that we grew up in. This leaves my dad home alone in a three bedroom home. It's about an hour and a half drive to and from work every day for my dad. What's interesting about that, you ask? He's thinking of moving... but all of us have a pretty big sentimental connection to this house. We had a brain cloud moment and thought "Well, what if we took over the lease?" We're not 100% on everything yet, but we're really excited for if this works out! I loved my house growing up, I loved my school, I loved the town and the area. It's closer to Bear's brother and sister-in-law, closer to my family and at the same time we are NOT far from Bear's mom and dad.
My brother is stationed abroad with the US Navy right now, and when he comes home he will still be able to come home to his room, his surroundings. It has an office area, which is amazing since we both work from home.
There are so many amazing things about this possibility. We're crossing fingers, toes and eyes, hoping that the landlord is ok with it. We've lived in that home for 15+ years, so I don't know why he wouldn't want to just take us on instead of having to worry about finding a new, trustworthy, long term tenant.
