We moved here to Texas 13 years ago now....after living in Indianapolis for 33 years in the same home, raised out three daughters there, and they still go back and "visit" it whenever they get into town. They send me pictures whenever they do...I am sure they people who live there wonder what that is all about.<br />It is nice to see they have taken good care of it...it meant a lot to us....as I am sure your home does to you. But now TEXAS is our adopted home...and yes, we hope this is our last home too before going "home" to be with the Lord. We are retired and in our mid 70's now.<br />Much love to you and your family.<br /><br />RoseRose ~Victorian Rose ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07960402442706598886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-84792931631208559782012-07-29T20:21:20.701-05:002012-07-29T20:21:20.701-05:00Your home is much nicer now since it has seen the ...Your home is much nicer now since it has seen the imagination of you and your hubby to make it the beauty it is today.

The upstairs had two attic rooms that they liked to play in. I fixed one of them up into a playhouse room and they LOVED playing in there when they were little. <br /><br />BUT...the house became more than we could keep up and had too much yard work for my husband...so we moved to a new home 5 years ago. Just a bit smaller, but no upstairs. (Just basement stairs)<br /><br />The memories from the other house are still fresh though. And we have pictures of our family gatherings there. It just seemed like the right time for us to move to a house on the golf course so that my husband could enjoy that in his retirement. And I take the grandkids to the clubhouse pool in the summers.<br /><br />Life is full of changes. Someday we may have to move from this house too. But until then I am enjoying it so much. I tell my husband all of the time how much I love the house he had built for us.<br /><br />Happy 20 years in your Home Sweet Home!<br /><br />Love, LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17751356958497450109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-58382875094502799812012-07-29T06:59:37.471-05:002012-07-29T06:59:37.471-05:00Wow, that's truly a home.

The time flies so fast and I love looking at others peoples houses. Yours shows a lot of loving care. Everybody's yards are suffering. I am just thankful for our trees that shade our house on the extremely hot weather. It helps keep it cooler then it would without. I like your Christmas stockings in the previous post. Take care Hugs Your Missouri Friend.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06648865214694535566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-5418636063232450672012-07-28T21:28:24.717-05:002012-07-28T21:28:24.717-05:00How lucky to live in a home that you have always l...How lucky to live in a home that you have always loved...to have raised your family there and have all the memories that are attached to the rooms and places in your house.<br /><br />Blessings to you- and congrats to BOTH of you for all your work to make a house a home- xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-34118510323801790212012-07-28T16:34:47.952-05:002012-07-28T16:34:47.952-05:00Beautiful-at every phase.

I love seeing the transformation and yours is stunning. Our last home showed our love and we left her almost five years ago(of course still own her but the tenants don't ever take care of our nests like we do).<br />I doubt we'll be in this home that long as hubby doesn't like it(but I do). Thanks for sharing and you & your honey have done a wonderful job!<br />Hugs, NoreenNanaNor'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608980502430055753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-27405378274875394832012-07-28T12:23:20.551-05:002012-07-28T12:23:20.551-05:00Hi Rebecca!

May you have many more years of happiness in your home! <br /><br />Many people here are decreasing the size of their green spaces and doing some creative landscaping with other materials. As a farmer's daughter I sometimes feel guilty for my green grass when farmers need water for their crops. One good thing is that it helps cool the space around my house, so I'll keep watering.♥♫Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13116154641827479893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-4838755771921229602012-07-28T12:08:37.226-05:002012-07-28T12:08:37.226-05:00Your pretty home certainly shows the time, love an...Your pretty home certainly shows the time, love and care you have put in to it.
