We spent two good years here and loved every day of it. In this house.... Ashlyn went from a baby to a toddler to a little girl. She learned how to climb stairs, how to ride her scooter, how to use the potty, started sleeping in a big girl bed, and became a big sister. Mike started his company in the basement. We called it his "industrial office." He became a green thumb and brought this yard from drab to fab. The tenets before let the grass die and neglected everything else. Mike really turned this place around. He became Clark Griswald and decorated the heck out of it for Christmas. He nearly broke his neck while trying to put lights on the second story of the roof. I heard a big thud and ran outside to find him hanging from the top roof and the ladder about ready to fall off as well. I told him he had to stop. After all, they are just Christmas lights that are only up for a month. He scared the daylights out of me! In this house I found out I was pregnant for the second time with another sweet little girl. Mike and I brought Kendall here from the hospital. I learned how to be a mother of two. I started a lash extension business that kept me really busy. So busy that Christmas Eve was wrapping Christmas presents and didn't have enough wrapping paper. I also never got around to send Christmas cards to our friends and family. Even though I loved making money, it wasn't worth the sacrifices I was making in the home. So I sent all of my clients away and decided to focus 100% on being a mom, wife and homemaker and leave the stress of making the money to Mike. I will never forget the first week summer we moved into this house we sat on the porch and felt like we were living the American Dream. Even though we were renting, it just felt so nice to be in a house. The chapter we spent in this house and created so many wonderful memories and I am so grateful we were able to call this place home.
Here are the pictures we posted on Craigslist. It rented out within a few hours.
