Anniversary (a Day Late)

Yesterday was an anniversary which Grenville and I forgot to post — Whoops
Not our anniversary . . . but the day we closed on our home, The Frog & PenguINN



It's been 12 years since 01/21/2003 which was also Lee-Jackson Day that year, a holiday that we Northerners had never heard of before (but know about now in VA)

We have so many good great times in this home from sharing get-togethers and celebrations with family and friends to enjoying it together as well. And as with owning any old(er) home, there has been a lot of hard work too, but it has all been worth it for us especially as this was the first home we owned together.

As many of you know, we are trying to sell the F&P. We hope that other folks will come to enjoy love this home as much as we have in our dozen years here, until then . . .

Happy Anniversary, Frog & PenguINN
Beatrice & Grenville

I am surprised it is still on the market.

So are we, Steve, but it seems difficult in a slow real estate market and especially in a small Southern town.

I thought it would have sold a long time ago too!

The house is such a pretty one, and I also love the effect you have put on it. Happy Anniversary and I hope it will sell real soon.

It's a lovely home.

I have never lived in one house for that long. F&P is a lovely home. It is only today's real estate market that keeps someone from snapping it up. Happy Anniversary.

I hope you will enjoy, no love, your new place as much. Keep the marvelous memories alive!

A dozen years is a good amount of time to spend in a house.

a BIG thanks to you all fellow bloggers for the lovely comments about the F&P, which we have enjoyed. Now it is time to move on as we are doing. We do hope it will have new owners to keep it in the style to which it has become accustomed :-) as it is truly a grand Victorian lady!
