How do you like the new charms that Kas and I got for our Pandora bracelets? Two little houses.. celebrating new ownership. We - officially on the farm....
And ... Kas and Nate.. owners of their very own house. The house that we used to live in, the house that Kas was raised in. Back when Kas and Nate were in the Marine Corps and we were planning the house on the farm, Kas asked if there was any way that she and Nate could live in the "old" house and one day buy it from us...
Last Friday (April 20th) all the paperwork was completed, and the family house is now in the hands of Kas and Nate. A 30 year mortgage.. which sounds so "long".. but really, 30 years.. goes by way too fast!!!!
It is such a blessing to be able to keep "our" house in the family, and to think that one day another generation of the family will be raised right there. And that every once in awhile, I get to go "home" again......
But our story doesn't stop with just one house. There is another, the "beach house" as we call it. This little house is on the ocean and we rent it weekly during the summer. We have been needing to open it up and get it ready for this year's guests.. but the weather has not been the most cooperative. So, Sunday, we called in the troops and got to work, getting everything back in order. Ed couldn't wait to try Nate's new mower, and Abbie couldn't wait either. She better be careful, we'll make lawn mowing her job....
She was a big help with "Tee-tee" moving the wheel barrow around while "Tee-tee" did the work...
Course, riding in the barrow was way more fun. It took us the better part of the day, but everything was done, and just in the nick of time....
And one little girl - totally worn out from the weekend's excitement and work...
Congratulations Kas and Nate... and all our best wishes for a long and happy life in the little house in the village.....
