That's the day we walked through this house for the first time. I had been looking at the listing for months. I'd look at the pictures and marvel at the kitchen. I'd look at the fireplace and think how nice that would be, and the large living room and dining room..... I'd think how nice those spaces would be for our big family. I wondered where the stairs were because that was not shown.

The price dropped and we decided to go see it. Oh, we loved this house as soon as we walked in the door.....I was sure we would! Christy and I loved the kitchen. We loved the beautiful open staircase. This spacious house was exactly what we had been looking for. It was more than we were looking for!
Corey and Christy put in an offer that day and by weeks end we agreed to the counter offer. Then the waiting began for the home inspections to be completed. That was so stressful! Closing finally happened on April 15, 2014. The house was ours!!
I marvel every single day at this blessing. I will never get over it. I love living here. I love living with our son and his wonderful family. It works for us!

After a dusting of snow last evening, it's looking beautiful out there today.
I love the lacy look of snow on the screens ♥
Oh what a beautiful morning!
Our other blue door.
Love that one too ♥
It's a good day for more cleaning! Loft/kids playroom, here I come! I'm gonna keep on smiling as I continue reflecting on one year ago. God is SO good!
