Yes, we do miss our sweet little farmhouse, especially after having put so much into it. :-) Of course we don't know what the future holds, but we hope our new home will be our "forever" home. We are looking so forward to having more land, especially as our girls continue to grow up!

Yes, there will definitely be a lot of white and wood in the new house! :-) We are living with my husband's parents in the meantime... they have a nice basement they cleared out for us and my husband is very close to work. And spending weekends at my parents. It feels a bit like living out of a suitcase! Ha!

You obviously had their best interests at heart -- how sweet! I wish we could have chickens. Yours are so pretty and I just loved your photos of them as chicks! Best of luck to your family during this time of transition.

This couple that purchased your home are so lucky. Such a little cream puff to call "Home". Can't wait to see what develops in your new endeavor of that new "forever" home? We did the same back in the day when our first two were small. We moved in with my parents while we were building. Can't wait to see what you are choosing for a house plan. Good luck, as I will once again go down my own memory lane through your new home building posts. <br /><br />Debra Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405346187589957794.post-30741541657486992272017-01-02T07:48:40.835-06:002017-01-02T07:48:40.835-06:00That is great news for you !

They are so happy in their home and in the neighborhood. We often referred to them as "neighborhood chickens" because all of our neighbors love them. :-) My parents didn't have a safe place for them, and we felt better leaving them with the new owners that would love and care for them in their own environment they grew up in. <br /><br />We are living with my husband's parents... they kindly emptied their basement for us so we have a nice little home. :-) We are spending weekends at my parents. <br /><br />Happy New Year!
