Anticipation--Happy memories

Since I keep getting asked to post pictures of where we're planning to move to, in between cleaning house & leaving the house for showings I finally looked up some pictures to post that would give you all an idea of what the place looked like.
These pictures were taken at our family reunion that my sister hosted July 4, 2007.
It was great to look back at these and remember this fun day. Since it still looks like winter around here right now and everything is pretty drab, it also was great to realize that soon things will look like this again.

It's going to be quite the change for us, even tho Leon grew up in the country, and I did until I was around 5, we've lived in towns all our married life. Our kids have loved spending time with their cousins in the country, and we are looking forward to our new adventure!

  9. We can't wait to come see you! I hope it works out that we can come your way this summer but that is rather up in the air. I still love the mastiff dog on your pics. We used to have one and will get one again.
