It all started on Tuesday when the house was listed, Nate and I both got the automated emails that there was a new house for sale in our area. I called our real estate agent as soon as I opened the email. We went to see it that night. We put an offer in on Wednesday and by Friday night (Valentine's Day!), in the car on the way to go skiing in New Hampshire, we came to an agreement. Yahoo!

| Check out that back deck! Maybe someday I'll add a greenhouse underneath? |

| Thrilled about this big open kitchen/living/dining room with great light and views. That fake tree will be the first thing in the dumpster. That corner might be the best place for a wood stove? |
Despite all of our excitement (lots of excitement!), and the fact that we are only going to be moving about a half mile down the road, we are really going to miss our little cottage on the farm. This wonderful place has been our home for 4 years (we moved in May 2010), and the idea of leaving is hard to come to grips with. Our homeowners Eric and Lisa have been beyond wonderful. The house is amazing. I will miss the sheep, the cows, Horatio the goat and Cheyenne the golden retriever who greets me every time I come home. I have loved the little garden on the south side of the house and the deck where I eat breakfast.
