never say never

Remember my post about how I said we would never, ever move from our current house?  How it was the perfect house and I could see our girls walking down the staircase on prom night?  But then there was another post where I mentioned that our house never really fit my personality?  That {and some other things} led Dave and I into a deep discussion about what is most important to us.  Turns out, having a ginormous fancy house isn't one of them.  It just isn't "US"...so we put our house on the market and bought a new one in Salado.  This is it:

And I am here to tell you peeps, it is going to be ADORABLE.  Once we get rid of the 1970's kitchen, that is {and the country blue shutters, and the country blue carpet, and the floral drapes...you get the picture}...it will be a full blown remodeling project, but we are so excited to get started.  It sits on an acre lot, close to town, with lots of trees.  And did I mention the tree-lined street you drive up on to get to this house?? and the pond at the end where ducks just swim around?? So perfect.  We close May 7.  Stay tuned for LOTS of Before & After pictures.  ;-)
