We are moving from one of these tiny townhouses...
To this farmhouse!
Our yard will be going from a fenced in bedroom...
To a house sitting in a corn field. I am so excited!
Now, don't get me wrong. I have enjoyed our tiny yet adorable living room for the last year...
And we have been very blessed to have a yard, and we have enjoyed it thoroughly...
I'm just very excited to finally have the space for our family to stretch out!!!
There are some downs of course (like heating & cooling, hardwood floors with little kids, and a longer commute to work) but I could not be more excited about the pros! I'm going to have my own art room! Yay!!! My painting and sewing stuff can stay out all the time! I'm even going to have my own ceramics studio in one of the old "servant's quarters"! We will have space for a playroom, a real dining room table, and a place for all of our books! My husband will be able to work on our cars (a beloved hobby for him) and have space for all his wood working tools. We will have a swing set, and ample space to host pot lucks and barbeque's! I imagine I won't be running out of blogging material for at least a year ;-)
It's about 35 minutes from my husband's work, but only 10 minutes to our church. It's farther away from some of our friends, but closer to others.
I love to have people over and host parties, but it's kinda hard when you're already a family of 4, and your dining area looks like this:
We have loved you little town house...
... but it's time to move on!
