we are now homer-owners-signed the papers last night!! We are all totally excited...we have been wanting this home since Dec. Another bid won over us but I did not give up hope! My mom did't even know that we have been house hunting since September. I wanted to keep things hush until we had the home we wanted. This was not our first choice-we were going to build one in this sub-division until this one popped up in a listing. It so funny since we past by this house so many many times...not even giving it a thought-we just assumed it was out of our price range. It ended up being a great STEAL. Just had to show our families back in Detroit-so mom, when are you coming? House Album (coming later) This is the view from the back(off the kitchen/family room, our bedroom and the basement)-this is what got me the most!
OMG Keisha! It is so beautiful! I am so happy for you all! Maybe one day (in my wishful thinking), we can have a class in your new basement! ;-) It is stunning and I can't wait to see you decorate it. I thought about all the natural lighting and the flowers that you love!

Gorgeous house! You know, I think I know who the builder is because your features are very similar to mine, including the stairs. We are in South Riding. Good luck and can I say I love the colors on the wall. Are you going to repaint?

Oh my goodness, how stunning! Simply beautiful. Is Lavaughn still in the Military? I assume that buying a home means he won't be getting stationed anymore? Is this house in Virginia? Sorry if I'm being nosey LOL

Hello,
Congratulations from France/Normandy, for your new house. It's a marvelous home !
Please, be indulgent, I don't speak english very well.
I found your blog when I was looking for scrapbooking blogs. Your scrap creations are sober (?), simple, photos are very nice, I like very much !
