Say What?

I love to look at houses... its just a hobby.  But I found one I really like and its close to our friends and our church.  I know most of you would say why move but did you read the last sentence?  As of now we're not close to either.  My family leaves 25 minutes north and our church and friends are 15 mins south.  I've always loved the bungalow, craftsman, older style home.  This one is waaaay below our budget but would require some fixing up.  I've not actually seen the inside of it but I'm hopeless in love with the outside.  The area is very charming.  Its within walking distance of shops, restaurants, parks, friends and church!!! 

Here's what I love about our house now.
My new kitchen - granite counters and new cabinets!
Huge bedrooms and plenty of closet space.
Great yard!!!
covered front porch

Here's what I'm not happy about.
My common area is very small.  The living room and kitchen are combined and its not big enough.
No dinning room.
No fireplace.

Here's a pic of the house I'm talking about... isn't it cute!!!! 
 
It has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 fireplaces and a super cute porch.  The yard isn't as big but its got lots of big trees. I think I'm going to schedule a viewing.  It actually says it has the same square footage as our home now.

The Almighty Mud Run 2013

I'm still pretty impressed with myself that I not only attempted this but finished it! It was the hardest thing I've ever done.  I still haven't taken off my bracelet that I got at the finish line.
 
I'm pretty sure I was mid sentence when this pic was taken :)
