Fact: My mom's nickname for the grandchildren is "Nanna."
Fact: My dad's nickname is "Boppy" (I am not sure why).
Fact: Nanna and Boppy are moving from Chino Hills to Riverside.
Fact: The house they're looking to buy is beautiful, has a HUGE lot and, despite the crazy housing market, are going to make a nice bundle of money on the deal since their current home's value is still quite high (it's in a great location, has a pool, etc.)
FACT: Their current residence in Chino Hills is exactly 32.5 mi from our home (Baby Blaine) – that's about 42 mins one way.
FACT: That's a 64 mile round trip that requires nearly 1.5 hours in the car and $12 in gasoline.
FACT: If mom and dad move into the gargantuan "Water Tower Home," they will be 9.0 miles from Baby Blaine, a trip that will require approx. 12-15 mins. in vehicle and .5 gallons, or $2.50 in gas.
FACT: That house is surrounded by mountain biking trails (woo-hoo!)
FACT: That house has a HUGE lot with endless possibilities (I think money's required to add things like a pool and landscaping thought)
FACT: Carter called, and occasionally still calls, a home a "hoeen."
FACT: It will be VERY nice to have my folks closer to us (Sarah's parents live about 15 mins away too). Close...but not TOO close. (;
*Disclaimer: no deal is finalized regarding the new house but the deal on their current house is and, therefore, Nanny and Boppy could be homeless in a matter of weeks. They could stay with us, but what have they ever done for me?

WOW! Where is that? How lucky for you to have two sets of babysitters, I mean, grandparents so close by :) And it looks like they will have plenty of room for grandkid sleepovers!
