I’m feeling a little nostalgic. Even though we are mostly settled in our new home, I am still missing our former home of 10 years.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane, shall we?
On a cold rainy day in February 2001 the hub and I walked into an Open House, and this is what we saw.

Our First Visit To Our Future Home - At The Open House
I loved the brick and I loved the fireplace, but I wasn’t feelin’ the fancy schmancy decorative plaques on the fireplace mantel. It just didn’t seem to fit with the casual feel of the home.
Not that these plaques would have been a deal-breaker, but still!…
We made an offer on the home, and after 24-nail-biting-hours, our offer was accepted. The seller got 3 offers.
Almost exactly 10 years later, we had made a lot of changes.
