I think I can officially say that the entire human part of the Moody family is very excited about the new home........I am sure that it will be quite a adjustment for Winston, Maggie, and Mooks...as it will for us also but a good adjustment all in all.......Dylan absolutely loves running all over the house....he loves all the stairs and the corners that he can hide in and play peek a boo from........Collin will love the space and just having space to put everything....I love everything about the house..........well not everything........of course I plan on changing almost everything....but I love the house........and am so glad that we were able to find a big home in the Avenues........that is really the tough part about the Avenues...there are only so many big homes in the Aveneues and if they have been redone you are spending $400,000 to $500,000 on them and they go quickly and they are in pretty high demand for a specific buyer of course...so we feel very fortunate to find a big home with lots of potential in a affordable price range....in a great neighborhood........
We will be only the 3rd family to have lived in this home.....which is kind of cool....over the last 70 years both families had the home for over 30 years and raised their families in this home....I guess in its day this was quite the house......lots of parties...card games....both families did alot of entertaining............it was just a fun house with fun people ...........you can still see remants of good times from the past.........the downstairs boast a bar and fireplace with bright red shag carpet and neon pink lights glow from behind the bar........they added two large additions on the back.....as I spoke to the daughter of the Estate she fondly talked about where her fathers pool table was in one area and how her mother would set up bridge tables in the other.....of course the red shag carpet must go perhaps I will frame a small piece of it.......the one addition will be turned into a proper family room and we will begin to make our family mark on the home as the two families that came before us...........we can only hope to have 30 long years in this home filled with lots of parties and family memories...........

It would be neat if you could frame a couple of family photos from the other families who occupied the premises.
