House Hunting is Over!!

After viewing 16+ houses, the search is finally over. When I type finally, it means FINALLY!! It was quite the search. We are very thankful for the patience of our realtor Betty. So, here are the details on our home: It is an all brick ranch, which is just what Terry was wanting. It has been converted to a 2 bedroom home. The man that lives there is in a wheelchair, so he and his wife had someone take out a wall to make the master bedroom bigger to make it easier for him to move around. It has a brand new master bath, completely done in ceramic tile. They left all the frame work up for the wall to be put back up, so once we are settled, we will take a look at doing that. Dalayna's room is across the hall and Colby is getting a room in the basement. The basement is large enough we can put 2 bedrooms downstairs, plus fit in space for a school room. So, once the wall would go back up, we would have 5 bedrooms. The lady who lives in the home has decorated this place so beautifully, and yeah for me, she is selling me some of her stuff. She and her husband(he is a pastor for an apostolic church) have done so much to this house. They remodeled the hall bath, put in hardwood floors, put ceramic tile in the kitchen, put in ceiling fans and other light fixtures. We can't wait to move in!! It sits on a double lot, so we have a very large yard. We will have it fenced after we move in so our dogs can spend time outdoors. There is a very nice arbor covering the patio, and giving it some privacy from the street. Once we are moved in, I will post pictures of the house. At this point we are still waiting on a closing date.

  1. yEAH! You updated your blog. I had begun to think you were through blogging, and I was so sad. Anyway, the house sounds delightful and we can't wait to see it in person. Tell Colby and Terry, too, that the fish is just "bee-oo-tiful". Hope they catch lots more in the future. Love you all, Mom
