Changing Zip Codes

Our zip code has been 35907 for 16 years.  It's hard to change things like that.  They just get in your head!  Well, things sure are changing around our home!  We will be moving soon to zip code 35903 so we are getting our house ready to sell.  
It is one crazy world right now!! 
 There are two toilets sitting in our front yard!  
What in the world?


I know you are so jealous!! LOL!

We visited with our realtor and she gave us some suggestions such as: paint our walls, get new carpeting and flooring in our bathroom, change out the toilets.  Since we don't have a clue what we are doing, we are just following exactly what she says.  Everything is really starting to come together beautifully.  The house is much cleaner looking with no marks on the walls and no yucky carpet.  We are incredibly thankful for this and ready for a new owner to take over here.  

Last night, we took another load to our new house, my parents home in Hokes Bluff and afterwards, we took a swim to cool off.  As the girls were playing, I was just in a mood of thankfulness.  It was so quiet and peaceful there.  The stars seem to shine a little brighter than ever before.  We were so tired and so sore but it felt so good to work hard and achieve so much in one day.  

We sure are gonna miss 5101 Honeysuckle Lane, well really all the people around 5101 Honeysuckle Lane.  We just happen to have the best neighbors in the whole world and we  hope they come to see us often.  We are so looking forward to new adventures in our new zipcode.

  2. Curious as to what brought the change? :) We just moved about 2 months ago. Our house was on the market for 2 and a half years. Yep, you read that right. :( But in God's infinite wisdom it was exactly perfect timing. The house we bought is perfect for us, complete with our first ever swimming pool. :) It had only been on the market for 24 days. We did a MUCH needed upgrade from a 3/1, 1318sft to a 4/3 and a half with over 2300sft. I wake up every morning so thankful and it seems surreal. I hope I never take it for granted. :) Whatever your reason I'm sure you're following Him. I pray it will be a wonderful home where you make lots and lots of happy memories. :)

  3. Jodie, we have always wanted to live on a farm since we got married. My parents live on a 43 acre farm and are just ready to downsize. They are moving to their cabin on the lake about 30 minutes away and we are getting to buy their house. It's an amazing country farmhouse that has so much character. I'll pot pics soon
