I'm glad she's doing well! You were lucky to sell in this awful market!It's such a cute little house. There's so much potential there and I hope the new owners has years of happiness in that house!

Grandma's house is adorable. I will spread the word – I know a few friends wanting to move to that area!

Glad to hear GMIL and MIL are settled nicely. I see some real pride of ownership in the homes you showed, I'm sure that helped with the sale.
All this talk about Thai is making me hungry! Yes, I love Thai! Have to get DH to try it one day (I usually enjoy it with friends from work.)

Glad to hear that the house sold. In this market 6 months isn't so bad. I remember you blogging about a few pieces that you hoped to get after the sale. Looking forward to seeing what you will do with them.
You are so creative that I know they will be terrific.

Yummy Surin! I used to eat there when I lived in Atlanta. Pad Prik is my favorite dish too! It makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

Just wanted to say hi because I am a fellow Crestwoodian! It is quite a special place. You can't help but love it. The house we live is a little 1950 cottage. I have been contemplating creating a blog just for it. We are renting while we wait to sell our home in Georgia. The properties in Crestwood are selling very well considering the market.

Just an adorable little cottage. And the upgrades inside look so nice. Love the floors. I hope the new owner loves the home and cares for it well. Grandma Eleanor is lucky to have family to help with things like this. But it has to be hard to give up her independence. I dread the day that my daughter says "No way can you just let them do what they want" about me. sigh …

I loved the cottage tour (I followed the links). Very cute little house. My grandma's house was a small cottage too.

My mother lives with us now. Originally she had hope that she could live alone after my dad passed away a year and a half ago.

But a couple of trips to the hospital and needing help to recover convinced her she couldn't be by herself.
