MN update

Well, sure was a long day yesterday. We ended up looking at 11 houses total. Ended up crossing one city off the list without even looking at any houses after determining that the commute was more than we wanted. At the end of the day, we had it narrowed down to 2 houses in 2 different cities. One in Forest Lake and the other in Hugo. There was also a $60,000 difference in price between the 2 houses, as well as about a 10-15 min difference in commute to work for Ed. So the decision seemed easy, go for the less expensive home further away. But then we looked at the school rankings again in both cities...and of course that house location had much poorer school scores. So in the end the more expensive closer home with better schools would be the winner. Onto writing an offer. And heading back to WI to our kiddos.
