The Search is Over


After searching on and off for a year and a half, we have found a home. It was a home going into foreclosure so we got a good deal for the amount of house. The sad thing is it was very neglected and in need of repair. We had a roof put on over the weekend. We're still cleaning out all the things left behind by the previous owners. We will be having a large garage sale to get rid of it all. The next couple of weeks will be major work for us just cleaning it out and getting it ready to live in. We will move in towards the end of the month. Our family is very thankful for this diamond in the ruff.


P.S. If there are any gifted painters or plumbers who would like to volunteer your services, we need you.

I hope he's outgrown that, it could be a very expensive lesson.
