Welcome to our FIRST home. We (Steve purchased, but we shopped together) got this house my senior year of collage. Steve and I knew we would be getting married, Steve had a good job, and his housing situation had recently changed so it was the perfect time to buy. Not to mention interest rates were very low.
For a single guy then a married couple with no kids, the house had more than enough space. When we first moved in, we had rooms that weren't being used at all...no furniture. Slowly, over the past 4-5 years rooms have been filling up. We added pets to the mix (first two cats, then a dog) and that made the house shrink a little. THEN we had a baby. Our first son. All of the sudden every corner was filled. We currently have 0 extra space. Honestly, we could probably live here forever and be just fine. How much room do people really need?? Living here longer would just mean we would need to start purging a lot of the "stuff" we have accumulated over the past few years and doing a lot of organizing.
This is our entryway

It has been a wonderful house and I am a little sad to leave. Hopefully the next owners will love it and make many great memories, like we did. Thankfully I am reminded each day when looking at my husband and baby that "home" is not a specific place or location. It is wherever your heart and family are. As long as we are together, I will be happy.
