Open House

Our across the street neighbors, Mark and Julie, are scraping us off the bottom of their shoes and moving to a bigger house in a fancier neighborhood. They are actually good neighbors but they are leaving and of course we are glad that they are moving up in the world a little a little bit, will miss them, and wish them well.

First however, the neighbors get even by engaging in one of life’s guilty pleasures. We have been looking forward to it all week. Ever since their realtor put a sign out front announcing an open house this weekend. Oh boy, we get to see what they have done to the house, and what kind of furniture they have and how they have decorated. We get to go through the whole house! We even get to peek in their closets.

So we went. The house looks great. Julie has decorated well. The landscaping in the back is great, their granite counter tops in the bathroom look really good.

This is fun, who else in the neighborhood is leaving?
