Columbine

Today we went house hunting again. The first house we saw was the house I grew up in. Here is a video of the way our house looks now. Mostly this is for Bubs, Brett, Mike & John.

We have been taking videos of all the houses we have gone through. That way we can review what we saw. Our memories aren't what they use to be. I am so confused on what we should do. It would be cool to buy my old house, even though it is different. It would be big enough for us, but not a great place to gather with other families. There are small rooms you can go in, but not one great gathering room. Still, it would be cool. Although the neighborhood is kind of scary now. Our street seems fine, but when you go down towards the school the houses look like they are falling apart. Was it like this when I was growing up? It didn't seem that way.

The other houses we looked at we could see ourselves in as well. They are more expensive, and some would need a lot of work. But, if we were to re-sell it later, it would probably hold its value more. The last house we saw was really nice, but at the top of our price range. It was up the street from Mike's work.....but we didn't like the yard. Decisions, decisions.......

Craziness. I can't believe how much they changed. Moved the stairwell? Wow. It was fun to see it, even though I didn't recognize anything. Was my handprint awesome? Did the shed still have the broken window that was in the shape of a pig? Bubs knows what I'm talking about. Were there the holes in the wall where Mike threw the baseball and missed the couch?

Who moves a stairwell? Weird. No holes in the wall and your handprint was awesome. It is weird how the inside is completely different. I never would have guessed that was how it looked inside. The shed windows were covered in vote for whoever signs...so no pig was spotted. We did go up there and dad made the comment that that was the only thing that he recognized...the only spot that wasn't changed.

Did the 2nd floor of th shed have all of our graffiti on it? Derogatory comments about Johanna, etc?
