I'm sure our new house will be the same way, but you are right. It is our family that makes home, not the sticks and bricks we live in. Perfect costs too much. Hang in there! Sandpiper,

Our first home was a former rental, it was pretty icky. The house we have now was move in ready- what a blessing! But is an older 50's house, so it still needs work and updating, it's a never ending project. can't wait to see your new house! much grace and peace to you, Jenny wow, just from the outside pics, you can tell you did a lot of work on the house!

I hope that you are encouraged, too, at what you see in the before and after photos. I believe that God is going to bless you again through this new house and by letting the old one go. I am excited to see how He uses the new houses in both of our lives! Mine is not going to get the much needed face lift it needs, but it is going to be a comfortable, loving home.

We are in a constant state of renovation and with a baby coming in June, we are planning more. I am learning to be very, very patient. It's especially hard not to compare to friends who have 'perfect' houses. I know that one day we will have everything how we want it(as the finances allow!). I too, am taking pictures of all the work that we're putting into it. Thanks for posting before & after pictures. Thanks for giving me hope! In the meantime, I know that it's the family memories & the atmosphere we give it, that make it a home. Can't wait to see pictures of your new place! .-= Sandpiper´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/JourneyThroughMotherhood-HomeschoolBlogger/~3/r18meaLG40s/" rel="nofollow"></a> =-.
