Buy a home from me, use the truck to move for free

I'm so lucky to live at the start of the Hill Country near New Braunfels, Texas.

The boys and I were in the kitchen making a chocolate cake (yummy) and I looked up and out my back windows was this:

And this:

Now, I'm not proclaiming to be the best photographer (just working with what I got).....but I do believe that it's obvious that the sight was beautiful!

Now, I'm sitting on my deck in the backyard, with the wind blowing through my hair and I can hear some of the trees rustling, THE NEIGHBORS DOG BARKING, but, uh...let's forget that part.

Back to my little bit of serenity in pleasant New Braunfels, Texas....the trees rustling, the world is quieting down and closing the curtain on another fabulous day in beautiful Texas !

Gotta love it!

Yes, ya'll are invited to view with me too!

This house is stunning. 4 sides brick the sunset from the back deck is absolutely gorgeous. This plan is one of my favorites. It has a 2 story living room, nice fireplace in the corner. Entry is open to the second story, bannister is dramatic. Oh,yes, a nice buttler's pantry (now you know everyone needs one of this). Perry Homes built and they are offering fabulous incentives per Debbie Lopez at Perry Homes.
