Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

I thought I'd check in & say hello to everyone. I am currently going through "spray paint withdrawal"  and missing all of you! This is the last full week of school for my girls. They have a half day of finals on Tuesday and my oldest is graduating from High School on Friday. We are also meeting with the painter, having the house & grounds pressure washed & windows cleaned. That reminds me ... I still have to call someone in to clean the carpets!
So with all of this going on this doesn't leave any time to do some fun projects :( Hopefully things will be getting back to normal in a week or so!

My husband and I have been searching the internet and driving by some houses that are for sale in our area that meet our criteria. Of course we will only buy a house after our house sells, but it helps us to know what is out there.
Here are a few houses that we like that our up for sale.

We definitely love this one and it is only a few miles from our current home, so my daily routine wouldn't change..same grocery stores, Target, etc. Definitely move in ready.

Only one floor :) ... a big plus! ... and lots of wonderful trees.
.
Love the porch & the Craftsman style, but the yard is a little small.

We like this one because all the bedrooms are on the first floor with a bonus room upstairs. We like that the lot is almost an acre with lots of trees! Hmmm... what I could do with that backyard...
These past few months seem to have flown by. It's hard to believe it will be June in just a few days. I don't know about you, but I wish we had a few more weeks. Are you all ready for summer? Any fun things planned? 
 I hope all of you will be spending some time with your family and friends this Memorial Day weekend.
Thanks for stopping by,
Pam

  1. You enjoy the Holiday weekend too Pam!~ I have to say all those homes are beautiful, I like the craftsman style. None of these look like downsizing though to me...I picture downsizing like to a condo or townhouse....

  2. All of the houses are beautiful. The landscaping on the first has a lot of curb appeal.

    Congratulations to your daughter on her upcoming graduation!

  3. I'm stocking up on snot rags for next Friday, do you have yours ready? I like houses 2 and 4 because the garages aren't so prominent, but they're all adorable.

  4. Pam, aren't all those beautiful homes. That first one looks as big as the one you are in. I really love the curb appeal of the last one. Hurry up and get yours sold so you can work on the new one. Have a wonderful holiday weekend.

  5. Beautiful homes.... I was in Charlotte a few weeks ago, and can appreciate what the surrounding neighborhoods must look like from these photos. Quite lovely.

    Happy Memorial Day!

  6. I love all the homes that you have showed us. We just moved to Cincinnati and now we might be transferred to South Carolina. I was online looking and the houses down there looks so much more like us. I really miss the south.

    I can't wait for your house to sell so we can see what you do to a new one. Have a great Sunday.
