Check out this free BOM for 2010. I think it is just the cutest thing. I love snowmen. And how appropriate on today, when it's snowing here (something it rarely does).
Julia over at Hooked on Houses is hosting a tour blog party . It's raining here today, so I was thinking, "Well, today wouldn't be a good day to take pics." Then, I was looking through previous posts on Hooked on Houses where she mentioned fuzzy MLS photos, and I thought, "I can use the very good photos Deidre took for our MLS listing for the tour!" Well, I just looked at the first photo that I saved from the listing and they are tiny . So, now I'll have to scour my computer finding photos of our house to share. Oh, well. I found this cool picture of my sil Judy at our first meal in our new home on New Year's Eve 2005. My favorite food is boiled blue crabs and my in-laws drove up here with an ice chest full from S. Louisiana to help us move. Aren't they so nice? :-) In this photo, you can see what our dining room looked like when we moved in. The top of the dining room walls and the entire foyer had this hideous red and green magnolia wallpaper. ...
I spoke to the Realtor this morning about getting our earnest money check back on the house on Lakeside Drive. While we were on the phone, she told me what the other house that's coming on the market this week will be set at price-wise. It will be out of our range. BUT, she did tell me that she ran into someone at a garage sale this weekend who just happened to be the woman who made the offer that the owner on Lakeside accepted. (She never met the lady because the buyer used a different Realtor to see the house.) Her house isn't on the market yet because she doesn't need to sell it first (must be nice). They want to do some work on it before they list it once she moves out. It also is in Lakeside Highlands. She did say that it only has 1.5 baths, but we had already decided that that was okay; as long it's not only 1 toilet, we're fine with it. (Of course, we liked the fact that the one on Lakeside had two full baths.) Anyway, the Realtor asked her why she was sellin...
NOTE: This post was originally written on October 12, 2006. I found it in my list of drafts here on Blogger, so I thought I would publish it. My baby is now about to turn 18 in just a few months!! Today, my baby turned 16! Where did the time go? I can hardly believe that’s she really 16 years old. Michael and I gave her a suit for her birthday, but she had to pick it out. So today, we went shopping along with the Woodis gals. Laikyn hobbled along and we drove to each store at the mall to help her stay off her feet as much as possible. You see, a horse kicked her several days ago in both knees. We had her go online last night to do some preliminary shopping to decide which stores to go to. She finally found something she liked at the last store we went to - Kohl’s. We went to Wal-Mart to get a birthday cake and they just happened to have one with a plastic decoration on it that said “Sweet 16.” It was so pretty and they added her name in a pretty pale pink color. She wanted to go to Oli...
