There's no place like home!

Today i got my house plans back after the whole thing was completed! Everything looks great he even made a few rooms bigger than i had planed and it still works in our budget so i am soo excited about this! I was sitting today thinking about how awesome its going to be to have a new clean home! Our house is small and old but has great memories! Here is a little history about my little hand me down House lol! My Papaw's uncle built the house many years ago, i believe it was a two room house, and a huge rock for the back door step. After he was done living in it he rented it out, after that my papaw bought the house from him and he ad my mamaw lived in there and had two children, they built a bedroom and bathroom on to the house (i don't think my mom was born yet) after their second child they built the house they now live in and moved in. They rented the house out some until my aunt got married and her and her husband moved in, they added on a back porch, utility room, then they moved in to a new house, then came my uncle and his wife and they lived in the house until they built a new home and moved. Then my parents moved in after my mom and dad got married and they added on another room, me and my brother and sister lived there till i was in the 5 grade and then we finally built a bigger house and moved out. I have two older cousins and then both lived in it after getting married until getting new homes, and now comes to where we are today me and my lovely little family! Josh and i had to really fix this place up before we could move in, it was totally trashed. My papaw had rented it out to a guy and he just tore the place up then up and left without word so it was a mess, but after a lot of hard work we had this place looking good! It is just so old that the house has settled over the years and things don't fit as they should anymore lol but hey its got a lot of love! So as we plan our house and start to build here ends the story of our first home!! After all a house is still a home!
