Our New House: For Sale!

"Say it ain't so." That has been the general reaction from family and friends when we tell them that we are selling our house! Ha! Sometimes I can't believe it myself. However, it's time to move on to a new project! 

This is a very special house, and we've had a lot of fun making it even more special. I can't wait to meet the family that will love this house! My dream is that the family who moves in makes this house their Forever Home. I can envision little children running down the stairs on Christmas morning and sitting by the fire on movie night! They'll play outside and build campfires and forts...maybe even a treehouse. When they're older, they'll walk down the stairs in a prom dress and later in a wedding dress. Grandchildren will come to visit and play in the treehouse and the whole family will sit on the deck and remember all the good times they spent in this house...a house full of memories!

Our New House: The Kitchen


 I'm so glad we are finally finished with this project! It's very difficult to function in a kitchen that's under construction! However, the weeks of chaos were well worth the effort! I'm very happy with the results. :-) 

The kitchen is so much brighter with the white cabinets and gray walls!

I love the paint we chose for the island!





Breakfast Nook

It has a great view of the yard!

Entry to the laundry room! Notice the tile...that used to be ugly, yellow linoleum!  

I love displaying my china! 

My everyday dishes look great, too!

I really like having a desk area in the kitchen.
