Its Miiiiiiinnnnneeeee..whoot...happy dancin'..whoo hoo...


If you walk down this beautiful street...and look for the white picket fence.. you will find this front door! Not any front door...but my very own..all ours..front door! For this morning we signed closing papers on this sweet garden cottage that we love so very much! Through the amazingly gracious help of the folks we have been renting from..this sweet house is now ours!!

So come on up on the porch and join me for a cup of tea and a swing on the porch swing. So wonderful in the summertime!

Come on in and take a little look around..here is the main room...

Oh and the hallway that goes to the bedrooms..there is my chest full of art supplies!
See that blank space above the arch..I will be painting something fun there!

Come on in to the next room..here is my little studio with the lovely window.

And here us the plant window..I love the plant window.

I will even let you peek in my closet!!

My family has a wonderful secure home to call ours..without worry of moving. We can relax and grow and be happy here! My Studio has a real home..where is can stay & grow. Can ya see me happy dancin'?? Happy Monday all!! Love, Sarah

I am so happy for you. We are renting at the moment and the dream of our own home is still far off. Enjoy the security and the reality of making it your special 'home'.

Sarah: Your happy energy is palpable. It is glorious to have the security of a home you own where you can raise your children and find ways to explore all your talents. I think that kind of security really enhances the creative instinct.

Congratulations. You are so deserving of this delight.

Sarah - How wonderful for you and your family. It looks like a lovely comfortable home. I love your porch swing and red door - they are so welcoming! It warmed my heart to know that you live on a great street and in a nice home. Isn't it the greatest feeling when you know it is officially yours?
Congratulations - I hope you have many years and many happy memories there.

Thanks for posting this Sarah! I've owned my cottage for 9 years now and your post made me realize I take it for granted! We're in the middle of painting the outside and reshingling the roof! Now I'm excited about it instead of thinking of it as so much work. Cause it is mine and that does make me feel secure. You are such a positive influence Sarah! Love ya!
