I spent 5 weeks a summer here, every Christmas on the living room surrounded by aunts, uncles and cousins. It was heaven. And sure enough, every time I visit this house, I cry. I have so many fond memories here and to be honest I am very sad this house is still not in the family.
When I was in CWF in January I got to hear some great stories about my Grandparents. I wish I had been visiting on better circumstances but I was there for my grandfathers funeral. I got to hear about what a great man he was (more than I already knew), how much he loved my grandma even after more than 60 years of marriage. And I got to hear the story of this house. My grandma said as they drove by it one day that she wanted to live in it. My dad says it took about 20 years to make that dream come true but my grandpa did move his family into that home. When I heard this story it made me think of me. It's my dream house. I wish I could own it one day. And maybe some day I will, but until then I will dream.
( I would LOVE to have this sign)
One day, maybe I will own this house.But here is the thing that DJ thought was the funniest while we were visiting the farm. He loved that I used to live across the street from them. The house has changed but it's still the same land. . .
