Remember in January of this year when I blogged about the plans we had for 2011? One of the things on our list was getting a little farm house so we could move out to the country. Well, yesterday afternoon we closed on the little farm house of my dreams!
A chunky 5.02 acres of land with a cute little 3bd/2ba home and a salt water pool.
The previous owners used to have a garden with a little irrigation system in the area below so I may look into planting some raised square foot gardens here.
Some of you may be wondering where I will be doing my sewing and quilting... well, we've decided to have an outdoor shed/cottage built just for my crafting and video filming. I can't wait for that too! My own secluded space to CREATE! With a new farm house, a new baby girl, and my own creative studio I am sure I will have tons of inspiration for more projects and tutorials so this will be great for you too!
I'll keep you posted on the changes and additions to our farm home! This is such an exciting time for our little family!

This is most exciting - you will be in heaven. I am so happy for you and your family. Rest up before baby is coming.

I have a touch of envy. Dan and I have been looking for a very long time for a house with a bit of land.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It's beautiful. Isn't it wonderful when you see your hard work and planning come to fruition?
ReplyDeleteVanessa I love the house!!!! so good to be out in the country, breathing fresh air and being in contact with nature, I love it!!!! Congratulations =0)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! You are lucky to have such a beautiful farm house.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What an exciting time in your life for you. I was raised on a farm in PA-it was a great experience.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you, seeing your dream come true.
ReplyDeleteI could already see chickens running around there.
Definitely have a raised garden. Many positive things about that. May G'd continue to bless you and the family. Very, very careful with that pool. Evita
Congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beatifull place!!
So excited for you to get your house in the country. I am not all about farm animals, but I do love having room to roam, have a garden and not be able to see my neighbors(or have them see me) from my front porch. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteit looks awesome....i love living in the country...but we had to move for my daughters education so we are living in town now....You won't know yourself with all the space and fresh air....it is the best experience for kids to...to know where their food comes from is the greatest gift we can give them :).....I'm just so excited for you and your family....
ReplyDeleteCongrats..please post pics as you paint and make changes. We wanna see!
ReplyDeleteSoooo sweet! Looks like a perfect family house. And a salt water pool -- never heard of that, must be a Florida thing? (In my next life I will have a pool...).
ReplyDeleteMy machine quilters (mother/daughter) have their business in a converted garage and it works very nicely for them (heated and cooled, of course).
We get eggs from someone's home chickens and they are the best. And your husband will surely have fun with all the new toys he's gonna have to buy to maintain all that acreage, am I right?
I'm so happy for you V! I knew took you as to be a farm girl but we must be life twins because I want out of South Florida and into the country! For sure! FH and I have a few plans and we can't wait to get it done! God bless!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, what u plan on doing w/ that goat?!
