Summer and Fall all rolled into one with us on the hunt for a new home. August rolled around and we finally found the one we wanted to call home. We moved in labor day weekend and hit the ground running with cleaning and remodeling. We promise to post pictures of the new place soon. I needed to get a few more pictures taken and then I will share. In the meantime......I have taken a few pictures but haven't had the time to post. Here you go...summer....fall....winter.....OH MY!! I solemnly swear to post house pictures before Christmas.
