Good morning Ladies !! How are you ? If your in the UK and United states you will be enjoying a nice long weekend. It is a lovely sunny day here . We are at my in-laws house for the weekend. So much has happened since my last post May 15th!
On May 16th we looked at an existing home about 4 minutes drive from us . It was a beautiful home built in 2007 . It has 4 bedrooms with the option of adding another. It is spacious and a lovely layout. So we put in an offer on the house and 2 days later we were accepted !!!! We are officially moving. We did love the house style that was going to be built blocks away from us , but the builder came back and said it would be an extra $25000 dollars to build based on material costs. We declined and are happy to move forward with our new pre built home. One of the conditions of our offer being accepted was that our house would be put on the market within 10 days ( yesterday Friday!) We had a lot of work to do to get it ready for showings! There was a bunch of stuff moved to storage lockers a mile away. We had extra help Thank God! So every evening we had projects to complete. There was a lot of painting , cleaning decluttering to do. Since Sunday we had been up late, some days until 2am!! We got new carpets in throughout . They look great! So Thursday night we stayed up late (2am again !) and had it ready to go on market on Friday morning! As I write some people have made offers which is exciting. I will have updates next week! Some pics below of our house listing , I can hardly believe its ours !
We are staying here until Sunday as there is house showings today and early tomorrow. Today we finally get to meet our newest family member our nephew Stanley! WE drive 90 minutes from here so it will be a precious moment seeing him and his parents! It will be a relaxing weekend after a busy week!

Thank you on the house compliments Carmen but the photos are our existing house that we are selling( my wording caught most people out so it was my fault) They are from the realtor listing . I still have to post pics of our new house which we move into June 29th. I want to prioritize my time so that I have time to post, it is an important part of my week to keep in touch with you and my other friends. I will continue to post please God ! Thanks for visiting, Terri xo.

When you wrote – I can hardly believe its ours – I misunderstood. Wow!! Your house looks amazing, no wonder it sold so quickly! 🙂

It was easy to misunderstand but yes , we worked hard to declutter to get it into that position , so were happy with the results! It got a lot of attention and we are glad it sold , Terri xo.

Congrats on your new home, Terri. I’m sorry the new homebuilding didn’t work out, but hopefully this one will be just as nice. The pics of your home’s listing look beautiful. I can see why you’ve had offers so quickly. Congrats on that as well.
I’ve always loved April Cornell. This dress looks summery and easy to wear–a 10.
Enjoy the holiday today. ❤️
