Home Sweet Home...

By now, most of you have probably heard, our house caught on fire earlier today.  I was in Phoenix for work and scheduled to leave on Saturday, but I'm now home.  So is Tabitha (I was in training when the alarm company called me, and she was actually in the air returning from Grad School).

It's not pretty on the inside, plenty of mementos lost, but we still have the memories, and the rest of the stuff, it's just stuff anyways.

Major props go out to my friend Mark who was there to get Carson out of the house (Annabel is still away at puppy Summer camp).

Thanks also to everyone that stopped by to offer support.  It just goes to show what a great neighborhood we truly live in.

As soon as we get the all clear (I just got in town, and I'm supposed to talk to some inspectors tomorrow), it's back to work on the house as usual.  I've said it before, nothing with this house is ever easy :)

We are definitely not giving up, it was our dream house from the day we step foot in it just to check it out, and we have and will continue to do everything it takes to keep it around.

Just a minor setback...

Sorry to hear about the fire.  At least Carson got out safely.  And he looked mighty happy to see his Grandma Betty in the pic the Tribune posted. Hope everything works out for the best.

OhMyGosh.... I'm SO sorry to hear about your home.  It's terrible.  How can I help?!  I'm so happy you guys and dogs weren't hurt!
