We are buying a house!!!

. . . in Arkansas!!! So after month if not years of debating about it we took the plunge rather quickly. John got offered a job with an architect in Jonesboro where his Dad and Step Mom live and in the same week we found the most wonderful house just blocks from his new office and his father and step mom's house. Its perfect. We love it. We just flew to AR for the weekend to look at it and made an offer immediately. We will move Mid-January. Its all very crazy and very exciting. Can't wait for everyone to come visit us there - you might just give us a bit to find / acquire some furniture.


Here is the Realtor's description:

This 1920's home has been carefully maintained and perserved to focus on its beauty and charm yet not giving up any modern day convenience. The wrap around porch begins your walk down memory lane. Once inside, the grand foyer welcomes guest to sit a spell in the beautiful formal living room with its hardwood floors and tall ceilings. Or, if you are really special, come on back to the warm family room that opens into a modern kitchen and breakfast room. The master bedroom and bathroom are downstairs. This is not your ordinary home. Lots of closets--even walk in closets. The lot is green and lush and so private and inviting.
