Pros & Cons

So, we got up BRIGHT & EARLY this morning to go to some yardsales, and about 3 mins before we left the house it started Pouring.  Special.  But, we had already decided to take Mike to work and hang around York until the it was time to go to the blue farmhouse to check it out at 11. 
Let me just say, it hasnt rained in over a month.  Its been super dry, so it was starange that it was raining, but we sooooo needed it!!  Thank you Jesus for watering my plants and lawn.... they were brown and sad looking... hopefully tomorrow they will be bright and happy again!

Well, we ended up finding yard sales.... ehem... uh, garage sales... but we didnt find many prizes.  I did find a GORGEOUS aqua/turquoise plate, a cute lamp for the girls room, and Jasmine found a cute shirt, Madi, a fancy smancy skirt (her words, friends, not mine!).  Kiana didnt find anything... sad face.  We hardly ever find clothes for her.... they never have her size.

Than.... (dunh dunh dunh) the blue farm house.

One thing.... the people who own the house were SOOOOO nice!!  They grew up in this house, and their love for it shows!

On the positive.... the master bedroom is BIG, and so is the main bathroom upstairs.  The master bedroom has a great little balcony, and its own steps up from the kitchen.  We still love the yard and all the room and the huge bonfire pit. The eat in kitchen is HUGE!

Negatives.... that house has like NO closets.  AT ALL!!  Im a closet kinda girl.  I love closets and drawers.  They make organizing and storage simple for me.  There are 4 bedrooms total, the master, 2 small ones, and one miniscule one.  Not joking.  Miniscule.  :o)  The last people had used the 4th teeeeeeny room as a big giant closet.  The owners bought two large um... i dont know what to call them.  Closet type things.  I know there is a name... but its just not there... lol!!  The stairs are soooo narrow... and steep.  Not the safest stairs.  A little scary.  Also, there is not AC... and we dont have any window units anymore.   The storm windows are magnetic and go on the inside.  The 2 other family areas downstairs are small and laid out very strangely.

Man.... I was soooo hoping the positives would outweigh the negatives, but they arent.  In the end though, if they except us and we cant find anything else, this may be our house for the next bunch of years. 

Still praying... hoping.... wishing.... and I havent heard from the Pool House.
