“Best DIY Projects of September” Linky Party!

September 29, 2010 AT 8:46 pm 15 Comments

Hey, ladies!!!

Welcome to my party!!!

I am so very excited to see all the fabulous DIY projects that you’ve done in September.

Funny thing is….I don’t have a project to share.  It’s totally cracking me up!  I have never had a month where I didn’t complete a project.

Yowza!  Full time teaching is killing me!

So I need some inspiration, girls….lay it on me!  Bring out the big guns, would ya?

Here are the party guidelines…

1) Please share only one project, and make it your best from the month of September. (It can be a new or old post from the month of September.)

2)  Please make sure your link is to a DIY post that is related to home decor or home improvement.

3)  Be sure to add a link back to my party through my button or a text link somewhere in your post.  This will help your readers find their way to my party so they can enjoy some DIY goodness too.  :)

4)  Please make an effort to visit 3-5 other bloggers’ links and leave a comment.  This would be a totally boring party if we didn’t talk to each other, right?

Now let’s get ready to par-tay!!!!

Show me the good stuff…

I can’t believe we did it!

I have big news to share over here in my little part of the world!

We put our house up for sale today.

Yep.

You heard me.

My house is for sale!!!

I don’t know whether to freak out or pass out.

We didn’t really plan this.  We are just sort of stepping out in faith to see what God has in store for us.

My husband and I have some dreams in our hearts that cannot really come true unless we take the first step.

So we took the first BIG step and put our house on the market.

Now we are going to watch and pray and see what God will do.  :)

If you think we are crazy for selling our house….

Then you are going to think we are even crazier when you see the house we want to buy….

Stop laughing.

I’m not kiddin’, ya’ll.

That’s the house we want to buy.

It’s was built in the mid 1860′s and sits on a one acre lot.  Oh, did I mention it is halfway torn down?  Minor inconvenience, don’t ya think?

Most people wouldn’t even touch this house, but it’s right up our alley!  The hubby and I are salivating over it!  :)

We would have to restore the house to it’s original exterior design, but we would then be able to build additions to the sides and back.  My hubby will do most of the work.

Please say a prayer that we will be able to sell our house and get this one, if it be God’s will.

What might be even crazier is that I soooo want to buy this house so I can blog about our re-do!!!  It would make for some great posts!  (I know.  It’s a sickness we bloggers have.)

I will keep you posted on what  happens.  It may not work out, and if it doesn’t, we will stay right where we are at.  No big deal.

In the meantime, please help me spread the word about my blog party on Thursday…

I would truly appreciate a shout out on your blog or in a tweet if you have the time.

Please come to my party and bring your best DIY project of September!

Have a blessed day!
