It could easily be in the background of wedding, and church social photos. It was built in 1905 so it was a parsonage for 45 years, sitting right next door to the church.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-62493918176100193942018-03-31T09:55:48.438-07:002018-03-31T09:55:48.438-07:00Thank you, you are so sweet.

But to see it in it's old glory is so neat to have for your history of your home. I meant to comment earlier but was sick.. and now just getting around to gong back to MANY blogs I wanted to comment on. I love that photo with the big building right next to it too. Today.. your home is just wonderful and cozy and homey. Thank you for sharing this. Of course, when we find something new and fun, we WANT to (have to) share it with our blogging friends! Hugs...

Being a parsonage I'm sure that it was a cozy and loving home, then it was bought by the contractor that moved it here. He did a lot of changes, like building the fireplace. After that it became a rental and I'm sure that is when it started going downhill. We have owned it 4 years now and we love it more every year. It's our perfect little corner of the world to call home :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-37666359439418484262018-03-21T13:29:31.629-07:002018-03-21T13:29:31.629-07:00It must be a huge undertaking and to finding someo...It must be a huge undertaking and to finding someone that does it might be hard.

Now, you have made it into a charming little home for your family. As you work about the house, can you imagine the joyful songs and hymns that might have been sung as meals were prepared and clothes were ironed? Little ones tucked into bed with a prayer? What a treasure! Couldn't happen to a nicer person.Lindahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08450792092084530798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-51672989137906932812018-03-20T11:38:00.010-07:002018-03-20T11:38:00.010-07:00Hi Connie :)) This is the first time I've seen...Hi Connie :)) This is the first time I've seen the house photos and I am NOT bored by them at all! Home ownership is a dream for me and I love seeing other people's happiness and success!

Think of all the people that knock on our door in need of prayer and someone to listen and care. Think of how many people may have accepted the Lord right here in this little house.

Her dad was a missionary to Africa back (way back) in the 60s. I met her when the family had just moved back to USA and they were living in a church parsonage. Now that was a cozy home! Her mom had a way of turning a place that just felt real homey. You have done the same with your place. Crafty Home Cottage indeed! Thanks for sharing, Connie, and thank you, as always, for some of the best comments I get on my blog. Wishing you and yours a fine week ahead! Take care!
