SOLD!!!!!!
We are so excited that our house is finally off the market. We actually pulled it from the realtor and decided to sell it privately. We were fortunate to know someone who knew someone and it all worked out! We are so Happy that this family will enjoy many year of memories in this home just as we have.
Now I can officially share some pictures of our new build. I 'm a little superstitious so i didnt'want to share them until the papers were signed, although I have already taken some Friends through the house..LOL
We move in two week...YIKES!!! Which means I really should be packing and not on the computer ... dont'tell Rene!!
We LOVE our new house and can't wait to get in it!
We still can't say enough about our builder
They have been amazing ever step of the way!
We were able to change up the design of the house a little bit to suit our lifestyle!
It's not a mansion... but it's our Mansion!
I will posted more pictures of the completed house when I have a chance!

their going back...











Tomorrow will mark the end of the first week back to school. Shelyn is in grade 5 and Carson grade 2...YIKES!! This is very hard to swallow! grade 5.. really??? Shelyn was really looking forward to school but Carson on the other hand was not. Usually Carson doesn't really have any comment when it comes to school. As long as he can still play mini sticks, he's happy! This year was different! He told us he didn't want to go back because he had the "meanest" teacher in the WORLD! Wow, such a powerful statment but so far so good!




I love when September rolls around. Not only because its my birthday month but because it brings the return of routine. Although we enjoy our summer vacations , swimming in pools, BBQ's and all summer has to offer, there is something about routine that brings me comfort!
