Don't ever think of chopping it down. Not only will it give you privacy, you will be amazed how much shade it will cast on your house when the hottest part of summer rolls in. It looks like you guys already found your dream house, enjoy the many years of memories ahead.Janis Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16204836865615909616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140421035634329520.post-83565465059461802302015-12-31T08:57:46.252-06:002015-12-31T08:57:46.252-06:00I really enjoyed the tour of your home.

I'm especially looking forward to seeing you reuse the great finds you've mentioned. <br /><br />Your house is very similar to my house. We bought it in 1989 as newlyweds & hope to stay here for the rest of our lives. It's on a beautiful 5 acre lake-front lot. Talk about waiting for God's timing. :) We are NOT very good diy's though. We've paid for most things to be done & we waited until we reached the empty nest to make most changes(our house was in much better shape than yours when we bought it!). <br /><br />I follow your blog already & am looking forward to future posts!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305409125105992525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140421035634329520.post-42606555747837065392015-10-31T11:11:48.779-05:002015-10-31T11:11:48.779-05:00Yay!

We are in the middle of moving right now and I am so ready to be done. Hopefully today we get it all done so we can enjoy our new house. Good luck!<br /><br />~TrishaTrishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501382004041008279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140421035634329520.post-39796039168074894912015-10-31T02:02:13.068-05:002015-10-31T02:02:13.068-05:00Congratulations, Olivia and to your spouse too!

You are so right about Restore and Stardust (Goodwill's version), and that is great that you found that cabin with the good cabinets. It will take a lot of work, and there will be tears somedays, but you will be so proud when its done. Blessings to both of you. I look forward to seeing more. It's going to be so cute when you put all your special touches on it, because it really is cute from the street. xoxo SuButterfly 8)(8 Bungalow https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407401010841427366noreply@blogger.com
