New Beginnings

Yesterday the whole family went on a little house hunting outing to see my sister and her fiancé's future apartment. The place has it’s ups and downs – but what first apartment doesn't? It’s a flat above a three car garage so it’s small and cozy/tight depending on how you look at it. BUT it’s on a beautiful private estate. The people who own the property raise sheep and have two dogs and have an apple orchard. And they rent out the huge barn-turned-house on the property. The people who live in the barn have two horses in the front field – both of which will be having babies this spring!! It is a beautiful estate, a great location for Kay and Bucky, and the landlords are such nice people.

I am so happy for them.

We’ve been planning and day dreaming out paint colors, curtains, and furniture layout ever since. We’re imagining their bedding, their shower curtain, their dishes, etc. in the apartment. It’s really exciting. Bucky will move in mid-May after we clean and paint and then before we know it the wedding will be here and she’ll have moved out of the house. Crazy.

They met, became friends, started dating about two months later, got engaged about a year later, and now here we are. By the time they actually have the apartment they’ll have known each other for two full years. I remember the first time she introduced him to me. And now they’re getting married. My how time flies…

I'm getting really excited.
