Our House...in the middle of the cul-de-sac!

This has been a momentous week for the Brogli family. I got a new job in Randleman at Forest Park Baptist Church. We continued the packing process for our move and we completed the repair items on our house here for the new buyers. Also, this week, we put a house under contract in Randleman. This is our new home! Due to the former owners being rather heavy smokers we have some work in store for us, but Broglis rarely turn down the opportunity for a challenge. So, in the spirit of preparing a new home for our little one to come live in, we're repainting all of the walls, woodwork, ceilings, replacing the carpet, replacing air filters with higher quality ones, using copious quantities of vinegar for cleaning and thoroughly scrubbing the home. Also, a member of the church mentioned an ozone machine might be available to us if we needed it. So while it will take a bit of elbow grease, we see this home as a HUGE blessing from God only minutes from the church! It's in the middle of a cul-de-sac with what appears to be really fun neighbors and we're ecstatic to have somewhere to put our stuff when we leave our Wake Forest house and that puts us so close to our new church family. A huge thanks to my parents for negotiating the deal and to my dad for inspecting the property so it doesn't fall in on us our first night. We'll see you in late July new house!

Such a beautiful new home!! I can't wait to see what y'all do with it!

p.s. About ozone machines...Doug suggested to do a little research simply bc there have been studies to show that over time, they can destroy your sense of taste or smell. He admits that those are extreme cases, but it's worth checking into :)
