Late Summer Update at Avenue B
Our little family has had a lot going on these past two months. First and foremost, our little family isn't so little anymore! Our son, Steven, was married to a gorgeous woman, Melissa, last week - and when I say gorgeous, I mean inside and out! She's a gem. I am so happy they found … Continue reading Late Summer Update at Avenue B
Hello THOAB!
I'm rather tardy in posting what has been happening in the last few weeks. I've been super busy as one might imagine. June 27th marks the date I finally got to see the house in person for the first time. Our oldest son, Steven, picked me up at the airport and took me straight to … Continue reading Hello THOAB!
Final Initial Impressions and Getting Reagan the House Pup
It's official. As of June 6th, the house is all ours. I thought I'd be super excited about it, but really the occasion was rather anticlimactic.

If you think this door is great, wait until you see the door on the Elm Street side. I love the transom window, … Continue reading Initial Impressions – The Foyer, Living Room & Dining Room
Initial Impressions
We've been in-contract on the house for about 72 hours now and I've spent about every minute of that time studying every square inch of every single photo I can get my hands on magnified by, like, the Hubble telescope. Obsessed? Yup. Here's what I've got so far, some facts and some speculation. The house … Continue reading Initial Impressions
How It All Began
In August of 2013...WOW! almost 5 years ago!....My husband, Steve, and I took a trip with my brother, Trey, to look for our retirement town. We all were tired of big city living and wanted to find some space and peace in a small town. Steve and I wanted to look in the mountains of … Continue reading How It All Began
