A Home
Scott just went back to work. He has been off all week with us. Madison is getting ready to go back to school. Miller is playing. I'm trying to get back into the blogging groove of things. It's a beautiful day here today. We have found a home we want to buy.....BUT......it is in foreclosure. The real estate market has it but they don't have a price from the bank. Which is about to drive me insane. Maybe the bank will contact us today. Does anyone have any experience with foreclosed homes? Any advice would be appreciated. I have been looking at different things for the new house......wherever it may be. Madison is wanting a Paris theme....again...if you have any ideas please share. She has found a bed spread at Bombay for Kids...and I like it and it is on sale. Good sign. She also wants to add something to her room for her friends to sign while there.....I was thinking a chalk wall...but another friend of mine says no way...it is too messy. So....I thought maybe painting the back of her door and writing something in French at the top ...maybe about friendship...and letting them sign that. I don't know. And for the first time ever....I will have a dining room. I have always had an eat in kitchen only. So I can get my china out....it has been passed down in Scott's family for 4 generations. It's Royal Blue...so the whole room will be based on this one. Any designers out there?
Well, I have talked enough about the house...that we don't own yet or have a price on...say a prayer it works out. I really want this house.
I hope you all are well..I'm coming to visit.

I know nothing about foreclosures, have only lived in 2 houses my married life. Hope it all works out, been missing you!
Maybe a chalk board instead of a chalk wall? Or I've also seen frames where people can sign the mat and then you have a framed something to hang up.
My kids have a chalk board and it's not too messy. What about a dry erase board? I wouldn't get anything permanent because you know pre-teen girls...never know what they're going to write!!
Congrats on the house!
I think your door idea is great. A door can always be painted over down the road, when she outgrows that idea but for now, what fun for her and her friends.
The Paris theme sounds like it will be pretty. Who doesn't love Paris!
