It's not the BIGGEST home. Nor is it the FANCIEST. We don't have a 3 car garage (but we do have 2) or a GOURMET kitchen (oh how I wish!)... but what we do have is a lively, active home. It's hard to find two minutes of the day without some chit-chat, family or friends visiting, or just a good conversation amongst inhabitants. Those, my friend, are the things I love the best about my home.

My DH and I decided to go on the 5-year move plan and I thought it couldn't come sooner. But the truth be told - our home is looking pretty spiffy right now. We had a cleaning team come in and give it a good once-over (way long over-due). Now I'm playing "keep it up" and since Monday I think I'm winning. So the fact that Candyland is scattered around the living room doesn't bother me - the wood floors are shiny and the furniture is dusted. I can live. And I'm loving it. :)

So no thank you honey, I don't want to watch another episode of Yard Crashers on love-to-hate HGTV. I can do without Color Splash or any of the other shows that suck you into wanting to change everything and anything you can at home. We have enough never-ending projects just by owning a home (which we are VERY fortunate for in the first place). For now I'm happy with it. Maybe in 5 years I won't be. Maybe I'll need to hire the cleaning team back again to change my mind. (LOL) But until then, it's home and it's ours.
