Recently our good friends Robyn and Brendon (who welcomed baby Grace back in May) moved from their house in Colorado to his parents basement in Roswell! After living out west for five years, Brendon's job transferred him to Atlanta- where his entire family lives! Last week they packed up all their things and drove cross country with the tiny newborn! They were so lucky to sell their house in Colorado very quickly and came to Georgia ready to buy again. Living in the basement with a seven week old baby and an Australian Shepherd was not the most ideal arrangement so my fabulous mother (who happens to be a real estate agent) took Robyn out right away to look for a new house. I was able to tag along on a few occasions and we showed her houses that were both new construction and older resales.
The area where my husband and I live is really growing and very close to some of the major highways. It also happened to be the area that Robyn liked best! We focused on some of the newer neighborhoods with amazing amenities and while Linc and I were away for the weekend, they decided on a house...a house that happened to be in our neighborhood!! On Monday night they met with the agent, made their offer, and within minutes it was accepted!
They are moving in on July 9th and we could not be more excited to have such good friends right around the corner! The neat thing is that my parents have been best friends with Brendon's parents since we were babies and we have grown up together. I think of him and his two sisters as my cousins and love spending time with them. Both of our families moved from Long Island to Atlanta within a few years of each other, we went to the same college, our parents have houses on the same lake, and we spend holidays together! How exciting that this next generation of friends will continue to grow up only one street away! I can only hope that little Grace will have a playmate to keep her company soon but in the meantime I promised Brendon and Robyn free babysitting! ;) Congrats you guys! xoxo
