Featured Blog: House Unseen

She was a drama major with a nose-ring.  He was a classics major with a racing green Karmann Ghia.  She complimented him on his car.  He blew her off because she was stupid and obnoxious.  Obviously he was stuck-up and unfunny.  And so it was that for the entirety of freshman year, and the first semester of sophomore year at the University of Dallas, they harbored a mild disdain for one another which sometimes progressed to complete indifference but never improved past basic human civility.  But then they met again in Rome, and this time saw something different.  And got married and had four children.

Then they were ready for another adventure (because they are adventurous folk), so they bought a fixer-upper in beautiful southwest Michigan sight unseen off the internet for $27,000 cash, moved those four children out of southern California and embarked on an incredible new journey.

This blog is the very true story of how we, who got married too young and had kids too soon, found ourselves in a house with no electricity and no running water in the heat of the summer in place we'd never been in a house we'd never seen.  We, who are wacky and foolish and full of ideas, who have fallen in love with our new life and the amazing, kind new people in it, want to share our misadventures with all of you.  From the snakes in the walls to the frogs in the basement to deciding that we need a goat to go along with our chickens , I hope you'll enjoy our foray into the kind of life that we never imagined we would have, but are so thankful that we do.
