So my news. The Gods have finally smiled upon Thom and me. Or the planets have aligned. Or we’ve done just {enough} clean living for something really good to happen for us.
We’ve found a house. After a year of diligently searching for *just* the right place…we’ve found it.
What makes it awesomely *perfect* for us:
**It’s in an area called Cove Creek.
**It’s on a big hill overlooking Greer’s Ferry Lake
**It has an awesomely built 3 level deck perfect for entertaining {except, since I have, oh, ZERO friends here….it’ll mostly be me entertaining Thom 😉
**It’s a semi-fixer upper…although the things needing fixing are so minor, like painting, putting up some dry-wall, etc. {painting the exterior…cuz, while green is my fave color and geniuses choose green, this shade is definitely not my fave}
**It has the most adorable carport with a stone floor and a cute little stone-lined pathway right behind the house.
**It has new flooring and new cupboards in the kitchen with plenty of room for all my kitchen gadgets, pots and pans, and baking stuff.
We’ve signed papers and the real estate agents are taking down the listing, signs, and locks and we’ll be given the *keys* sometime this weekend.
Now…all that’s left is the reunion with my Kitchen Aid and Thom carrying me over the thresh hold {at his insistence, although I’m sure that there will be some sort of mechanical lifting device involved}.
Congrats!!! That’s awesome news:) You’ll have a lot of fun being homeowners, fixing it up and all that jazz!
Love,
Heather
congrads gina and tom i wish you well in your new home

Congratulations may you make beautiful memories in your new home , with all our love Uncle Mike and Aunt JoAnn.
The house, the view, the decks. It all looks awesome. Good job taking your time and waiting for the right one. It looks like a good home. Are those pictures from right now? (it looks so warm in those pics). We are supposed to get to 39 this weekend and its going to feel like 60+ after all this below zero crap.
Congratulations! What a view! When we whiz by on our boat, we’ll wave hello!
Thanks for all the Congrats!, Friends. I’m most excited about having my own “stuff” to look at and play with again on a permanent basis. My storage unit is a mess because every time I want something specific, I have to open another box }:
Liz…I don’t think the pictures are recent{they’re from the real estate agent’s site…but it pretty much looks like that, with the exception of leaves all over the place. I’ll have a lot of yard work to do 🙂 The weather has been warmer lately….high 50’s and low 60’s. Yay 🙂
I’m so happy for you Gina. You’ll have fun making it your own. I worked in the yard today and got a few other things done inside today. Lowe’s and/or Home Depot will be your best friend for awhile. I just spent about $500 there today!
Congrats! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the deck! HOW FUN!
