The Farmhouse!

Today's "tribute" post goes to The Farmhouse, the home of the Wilson fam that is currently for sale!  I'll be kinda sad to see it go, but happy for them to find a new place they love!  (And happy for the new owners who get to skip the messy major renovation process and just enjoy the results of it. lol)  

I was thinking about all the fun memories there, then started looking back through photos and was surprised at just how many memories I have there since summer of 2016!!  Today is the lightest felony Tuesday we've had in quite a while, so I had time to collage all these pictures! =)

This = a before and after of their front door from the first day I came to look at the house, to the baby announcement to Chet holding baby Tate! =)

The outside transformation... NICE!!  (I'd completely forgotten what it used to look like till I went back through my pictures.)

Kitchen transformation - not a great angle on the pics of the old one, but it's 1,000 times better now!

The fireplace, before and after. =)

A few pics from the first day we all came to see it in April 2016...

And a few pics from their current listing... the transformation is definitely impressive!

And now for the memories... starting with two parties to support their missionary friends and fam (Alex & Mary, Michael & Baylee).  The other pics are just random fun friends dnners!

The bonfire memories are some of my favorites! ❤

We had a verrry memorable 4th of July there (the attack of the fireworks), as well as a couple fun Friday night dinners in 2017! =)

The Engagement party for the Youngs!

Lots of fun birthdays!!  (including Gary and Laura, Tall Kyle, my 34th, and my favorite birthday ever!) ❤

Our last three Friendsgiving dinners, always a great time! =)

And ringing in the New Year - playing games and dancing and eating all the sweets with fun friends!!

...I'm sure we'll have at least one more gathering there, but I wanted to write this happy Farmhouse Tribute today while it was on my mind. Thanks for all the great memories... for putting in the work to make this place a beautiful home, and for being such great hosts and having all of us over so often, Chet and Karli!! ❤
