I'm supposed to be cleaning my house right now.

But while I'm on a little lunch break,
I found a new wonderific blog


and found this post from Country Living


about a old renovated school house.


This is a dream of mine.


Everytime we pass an old building


whether its a fire station, church, or school,


I tell Chris how much I'd love to make our home in it.


He thinks I'm a bit crazy, but someday it will happen.

Until then,


I will look adoringly at other peoples projects


and dream on.

I have the same dream!!! I love the old cupboards and wood floors and weird room setups. I would love to do it to. I just want enough money to do it all at once and then move in.. we are sister in thought! I love the topiaries and green on the porch

Sara, the next time you go into Draper call me. I have to show you my parents home. You will die. They had the same dream. It's been about 13 years since they found there place but there dream, to me, has come true. They still have lots of stuff they want to do but it looks awesome. Seriously we need to go in town and check out some cute shops.

So I was totally distracted as I pulled up your blog, to your insistent brother, who has called me THREE times today to frantically tell me to check your blog! :) So as it was coming up, I was distracted looking for something about Rachel I had to see (which is so sweet too btw). I thought the house was your house!!! I have only heard stories of how there is this wonderful home in Toelle and you live there and how it is so beautiful. So, in conclusion, I LOVE your dream, LOVE your pictures, LOVE your family, and LOVE your blog!!! And that is the longest comment ever left on any blog. Ever.

OK, maybe that wasn't really the longest comment ever, but it sure felt like it, until it was posted. I also want you to know that I can't WAIT to make your german pancakes. I LOVE german pancakes.

One of my photography instructors converted an old school house into her studio and home. It is so beautiful! The school is surrounded by fields. It's an amazing place. What a great dream :)
