Ever since I lived on San Jose Blvd. across the street from the pink house, I've always wondered what it looked like inside. Last weekend, my curiosity was finally relieved and as a bonus, we toured the house with Ned and Stephen who were visiting from Chilly Philly.
Lucky for us, they brought some warm and wonderful weather with them. What a fun weekend, filled with visiting, eating, touring and a little Super Bowl partying. Unfortunately, I was having so much fun I completely forgot to take any pictures with my new camera so you'll just have to take my word for it.
It is possible that I was distracted by my new diamond ring! That's right, after 20 years of marriage, we decided to upgrade. The television was also upgraded, lest you think that Brad was neglected. His 52 inch Aquos brings our entertainment shrine- er family room into a new dimension. At one point, Ginny and I were outside comparing diamond color grades while Brad and his dad were actually measuring television screens- a veritable Rockwell moment. I think that Ned and Stephen were quite amused.
Back to the pink house... The interior was a bit less grand than I had envisioned. The rooms are spacious with wonderful light from large windows. The back yard's oak canopied patio would be a perfect spot for entertaining. There is even a garage apartment (great for some distance from the teen in your life). However, it was a bit pricey for a home that doesn't even have an upgraded kitchen. Still, there is the pineapple fountain out front. For the right people, it is a charming home.
We have another wonderful weather weekend ahead of us, and I am ashamed that I ever complained about the heat. One month of gray, chilly weather cured me! I hope y'all have a lovely weekend, too.
