Good news for the Tomlinson clan

Since Kristi posted it on Facebook, I figured it was OK for me to share the good news: Thane & Kristi are officially under contract to buy a house!!! They got a killer price on a 5 bedroom/4 bath house. The one bad thing about this place, in my opinion, is it's not in Highlands Ranch. It's in a neighboring city called Castle Pines North. Honestly, it's super close to us; only about a 4 minute drive. But since it's not in HR, our kids will never go to the same school. Not that that's a bad thing, but Shawn & I always thought it would be fun if the kids all went to school together. The other drawback for us (because it's all about me, right?) is since they aren't residents of HR, if they want to use the rec centers, they will have to pay an extra fee, and eventually, an ordinance may be passed that prohibits non-residents from using the centers. Again, these are minor things. But to end on a positive note, the house is very nice looking, newer so fewer maintenance to be done up front, and there is plenty of space for their growing family and Kristi's parents to come visit. Great choice guys. We're so happy for you! Let the fun and scary parts of homeownership begin. Ha ha!
