Home

 Photo of our home, February 2017.
Journaling says...I love our home! We moved here 23 yrs. ago to be closer to Brad's work and it has felt like home as soon as we moved in. So cozy and safe, spacious, and just outside the city limits. We raised our kids here and although they no longer live here we don't really feel like "Empty Nestors" as there are always grandkids here filling our lives with lots of laughter and love.
