Spending Our Children's Inheritance & Giveaway

Hi everyone!

Most of you know we have had our home for sale forever!   We hear over and

over again that our home is absolutely gorgeous and how much the buyers love it.

Several couples have come back two and three times to see the home again.

The one negative we kept hearing was that the back yard wasn't big enough.  Actually,

it is one of the largest yards in the subdivision.  We didn't need a large grass area so we

elected to leave all the trees for privacy.  We liked that you couldn't see the neighbors

and the blooming trees were really pretty in the Spring.  After four comments in a row

about not having a large yard for the children to play in,  hubby got out the chain saw

and cut down every small tree!  He was a man with a mission ( a pissed off one) and

he cleared the yard all in one day.

Below is the only picture I could find of the yard before.

Our neighbor owns a landscape company so we hired him to extend the irrigation

system to the back yard, haul off the trees and put in sod and mulch.  Steve and I
thought we would miss the trees,  but actually we like the new look.

Still a work in progress.

Okay, after spending a lot of money on the yard we had a showing Thursday.   They came

back Friday to look at the house again.  Good sign right?

The feedback we got from their agent was he really thought they would make an offer.

The buyers absolutely loved the house and thought it was gorgeous!  They were

having a hard time imagining not living here.  But....

There was not enough privacy in the yard from the neighbors and they

were passing on our home!!   Uggh

We are headed to the beach in Destin, Fl and then on to visit my dad.  Two weeks

away from cleaning and preparing to show the house will be good for us.  I'll

drown my sorrow in Virgin Bloody Marys and LOTS of fresh seafood.  I bet

some antique shopping will help too.

The Cutting Edge Stencil giveaway is still going on and you can enter HERE.

Thanks for visiting and have a great Summer.

xo,
Sherry
