Welcome Home!





















Welcome Home, meaning we have a new home! We just heard all is a 'go' for closing November 20th. We have been searching for a house for 10+ months. You would think there would be many homes available in this market, but we are really picky and a house has to feel like it's our home....it has to feel like we belong. And we finally found it. It is in Rancho Vistoso in Oro Valley, which we love. It has a huge front yard with trees, a huge front porch (unheard of in Tucson), and a large back yard that has a wash behind it with mountain views. The house is 1600 sq. feet, just right for the two of us. It is 'virgin' meaning no one has messed it up by remodeling. We like to do that ourselves and have a lot of work ahead of us....which we look forward to. Don't know when we will move in, we have to decide how much renovation we want to finish before we move in....but certainly before Christmas!!

We watched Lola for an hour or so after work, so we took her over to the new house. She loved that there was nothing in it and danced and ran through the house. She kept saying, "come on GeeGee, let's go". She has started this thing, when you ask (or tell) her to do something and she doesn't want to, she very politely says, "no thanks"! It's so cute (and manipulative).
