Look what I just bought!

I'm doing the Snoopy dance right now! I know this smile will fade when I get into the actual mechanics of moving the family, but for now I'll just celebrate a bit.

Wowsie!

[Bilal]

It's Beautiful! Congrats! Enjoy your snoopy dance!

[OmegaMom]

OMG! It's beautiful! Tell us more!

[Redfish]

Fantastic! I can see that side porch becoming an extra family room; especially on a rainy day.

[Chris]

Congrats Miss C. You need a rocking chair and a pitcher of lemonade for that porch.

[Mary Beth Sancomb-Moran]

It's beautiful! I'm envious of the porch....

[Jill]

Congrats!

[David C]

Wow, very nice.

I'd love a home like that. A big nice porch area you can hang out and chill.

[THE Michael]

You bought THAT? You GO GIRL!

[The Nag]

I guess blogging, unlike crime, does pay:-) Looks like my kind of place.

[Jonco]

Love the porch too. Something special about a nice wrap-a-round porch. Enjoy!

[Shelley]

Love it!

[Evangeline]

Thats awesome hun. :) Do you have plenty of room for a vegie garden?

[Suz Broughton]

It is beautiful! Congratulations!

[Tennis Guy]

Looks great! Congrats

[WrapAroundSam]

Not bad for a geek.....really is nice. =)

[Road]

It's OK, lol

[PAgent]

I'd love to tell you how much that lovely home would cost you in Portland, but I'm afraid the tears running down my face make it hard to see the monitor.

[Miss Cellania]

Omegamom: It's 103 years old, within walking distance of school, and has a new deck in the back.

Redfish: There's a picnic table on the porch, right near the kitchen door!

Chris: I have a rocking chair ready for it.

Nag: I'm sure crime pays better than blogging!

Evangeline: I'm sure I can put a few plants out, but not on the huge scale I do now. But I won't miss the work.

PAgent, you'd cry even harder if you knew how inexpensive houses are where I live.

Everyone else: Thanks!

[Lu]

Oh but my heart aches for a porch like that!!!
Do enjoy!!

[Myklo Dahnel]

I'm not sure if I would enjoy
living in a place like that,
but definitely Kirk would! ;->

[Katie]

That's a really cute house. Congratulations!

[Mikey]

Such a pretty house! I'm having porch envy!

[Ariane]

I'd be doing the snoopy dance too! Sweet digs Miss C!

[actor212]

Oh I'm so happy for you!

Does the roof leak? :-D

[Miss Cellania]

It had BETTER not!

[Delinda]

Congratulations! Its beautiful.

[Edie]

Woot! That is an adorable house--but you need hanging baskets of fusias along the eves. Geraniums planted along the latice at the front of the porch, too. Oh, and throw in some planter boxes of trailing lobelias on the railing. All of which are easy, cheap and plentiful.

Congradulations, and may your transition be smooth, and nothing gets lost but the old stuff you never use anyway.

[bobo]

how come the front stairs don't line up with the front door?
could prove brutal on moving day.

[Miss Cellania]

Hmm, it doesn't. But I don't have anything so big that it would cause a problem. The porch is about six feet deep. If there's a problem, I'll take pictures and post them!

[Lenore]

Congratulations!

I recommend setting the date for a housewarming party right now so you'll have an unpacking deadline. It worked for us! Okay, so there are several boxes we hid rather than unpacking, but it forced us to get a lot done.

[HL]

perfect timing for buying a house! congratulations

[Ardyjay]

Hey , pretty cool. I hope it's blogging that's paying off a bit for you that's helped make it possible!

[rhea]

It's gorgeous. It looks almost fake it's so perfect!!!

[Miss Cellania]

rhea, thanks! I thought the same when I saw how the picture turned out. Good thing there are trees! But of course, it's not perfect. It's tiny and there's no access to the second floor. When I sell my current house, I'll have a stairway installed and remodel the upstairs for the kids.

[jeb]

We don't have houses like that in England. It's really nice.

[Dave]

Congrats! Looks like a nice place. And being within walking distance to schools is great; that was the main draw for my family when we moved 9 years back, even with a smaller yard. (The only thing I yearn for is a bigger garage!)

Hope the financing worked out well for you; remember to pay extra on your principal whenever possible & get that puppy paid off asap.

[alice]

Hey! Congratulations!!! I know you'll enjoy it much,

[Chewbacca]

Congrats!

[mojojojo]

so beautiful, congratulations!

[Avi Abrams]

Very cute! Best wishes. Let Shalom reign in your house and less bills grace its mailbox.

[adrienne]

Super cute! Congratulations.

[Heather]

Hooray! What an adorable house! Congrats!!!!!

[septer]
