Thanks to our house looking so great and the housing market being so crazy right now, we found a buyer within a few days. It closed escrow in only 21 days, so just a little over a month after putting our house on the market, it was sold, we had moved out, and the new owners had moved in. So fast!
On the day we moved out, Jackson and Tera still had a week of school left in the school year and Jackson had over a week left in his Little League season, so we stayed at the campground nearest to Davis, which is in West Sacramento, and drove them back and forth.
I am happy to say that a family bought our house. The husband works for Morgan Stanley, the wife is beginning her medical residency, and they have a four year old child.
Family Reactions to Moving
Matt: Relief and excitement. He couldn't wait to leave Davis.
Jackson: Not sad. Ready to move on to something new.
Tera: Sad, because she will miss her friends.
Judi: Sad, but excited.. sad...looking forward to new adventures...tear-eyed, sad, and nervous...and I'll miss my friends...but relieved.

Our Davis Home Goes On the Market
Today is a bitter-sweet day for me. We put our home for the last 12 years on the market today. We are moving on to bigger, better things: traveling around the U.S. for several months and then relocating near Santa Cruz, CA. We're excited to live near the beach and coastal mountains, and nearer to the many family members that live in the Bay Area.
But it's hard leaving the only home that Jackson and Tera have ever known. They came home to this house after they were born, and their hand and foot prints are in the cement by the playhouse that Matt built for them, and we have celebrate many birthdays and holidays here. It is also difficult to move several hours away from our many wonderful friends that we now consider family. *wipes tear*
