River Front Property

Little did we know that when we bought our new house we were buying RIVER front property. We were a little surprised after a few days off rain when the acres behind our house no long looked grassy...but more like a gushing river that was creeping up to our iron fence.


The water started going down after the rain stopped...but that didn't stop some strangers from kayaking down the rapids....


It was great entertainment all day.
Another reason we are loving our new house....
Can't wait for the next big rain!

The Move- Before and Afters of the House

Finally, after almost three months of planning, picking out, and renovating...it was time to move. We really gutted our new little house. We painted all the walls from top to bottom, and changed out every fixture, faucet, counter top and floor.
Here are the before pictures:



And after all the renovations.....


As much as we love the "new" inside of our house, the yard is still our favorite part.

Finally....we are almost done renovating and the movers came to pack us and got us moved to our new house. I cried like a baby saying goodbye to our old neighborhood, memories there, and friends. But we are still close to them, and have been busy trying to get settled to make our new home, a home. Shutters, furniture, and resurfacing the pool are all we have left. Phewwwww..... I fully expect that this will be our home for YEARS to come. We are loving it here and excited about the new memories that will be made.
