My husband and I have been house hunting for the past several months. When we decided it was time for a new house, we thought it would be easy. We knew just what we were looking for and we are so easy to please.
We simply want a house with a spacious kitchen, an open floor plan, and a decent size lot with some trees. That’s all we asked of our realtor.
Except…
Well, a big front porch would be nice. It would be even better if it has a long porch railing from which to hang Christmas lights. And a pretty front door is a must.
And…
A sitting area in the master bedroom would be an added bonus. And we love it to have a vaulted ceiling and a large, walk in closet.
Also…
A large tub to soak in at the end of the day would be a plus. With a separate shower, of course. And double sinks. And a nice vanity area. And maybe a separate little room for the toilet.
And, of course…
It really should have a big den. A great room would be even better. We need to have a lot of seating when the family comes over to watch football games.
Did I mention that we’re not overly fond of white houses with black trim or yellow houses? Brick houses, however, are very nice.
I can’t imagine why we haven’t found what we want after six months of looking. Our realtor says we need to up our price range, but we’re certain she can find just what we’re looking for within our budget. I mean,
Susan's Reflections 
Too cute, Susan. So true, too.
I totally get it. Good luck!
Thanks, Samantha. I hope we find “the” house soon. I was hoping to be in the house for Christmas, but we totally missed that goal.
…no, its next Christmas!!
Seriously though, I hope that this is ‘your’ year in all kinds of ways.
Thanks, Beverly. I think your right–my goal should be to have a new home by next Christmas! Please pray for our long-suffering realtor. She’s a saint.
