Finally we are pretty sure we are moving into town. We, yes even the kids, are incredibly excited. We won't be moving in until at least July 15th, but I think it will be more like August 1st. The landlords are really great people and live in the house right now but just built a smaller house next door for just the two of them. They are just very happy because they want the house to be lived in, by a big family so it doesn't just sit and rot away. There are a lot of things that need to be done before we move in and I need to go through 6 years of junk, and she needs to go through much more. I'm up sizing while she's downsizing. Before we move in they want to paint the outside of the house, cut down some dead trees and basically just clean up around the property, oh and build us a spot in the garage to store shed type stuff. Dirt bikes, Christmas decorations you know that stuff. They need to replace a set of french doors in the master bedroom. We need to paint most of the house. We don't agree with the landlords on colors but they said it's all up to us, which is nice. It's 5 bedrooms, downstairs has a HUGE bathroom, 2 bedrooms for Alex and Jimi and has a small TV/game room. Great for sleepovers, as long as one will sleep upstairs. 2 1/2 bathrooms, huge laundry room, huge pantry, huge kitchen, huge dining room. It's awesome. Oh and it's on a well so I get to have grass. Lot's of grass and a great back yard for the dogs, they LOVE dogs. The landlords travel 4-5 months out of the year too. Oh and we will keep the horses up there with us. Only 2 miles to the school and town to save us at least $500 in gas a month. Plus it's literally HALF of what we pay here.
Just a few not so great pictures that Terry took on his cell phone, before it's painted, I'll keep posting as it becomes OURS!
This is from the front of the house. By that big palm tree and up on the brick wall will be my green green grass.
This is just a different angle from the front but you see the dead trees that will be gone.
