my love for historic walla walla




This afternoon i walked through the antique mall remembering my childhood. and most of all my great-grandmother. her house was full of amazing things she had collected over the years. But because of hard times she had to sell off one by one. and then there was the time my grandmother stole all of her carnival glass and pawned them all. i guess i walk through there hoping to find something that once belonged to her.


Also I just have this love for older homes and antiques. about 4 years ago my husband and i purchased a small bungalow built in 1905 and started restoring it. then this summer i noticed a very large Victorian home that had been abandoned and was all bored up. I got the owners information and asked if he'd be willing to sell it. i met with him the next day and instantly fell in love. to my surprise the inside had been majorly renovated and then just left for vacant for 3 years. it looks a couple months but we became the Proud owners at the end of June 2009. and and been working hard on it ever since. and I believe this weekend we will finally be able to move in.. YAY!!
