New Beginings

On March 1, 2013, we celebrated the arrival of our first grandchild, Jillian Grace in Evansville, IN.  She is a beautiful red-headed girl who has already stolen our hearts.  Both mom and Jillian were healthy and happy while dad is as proud as one would expect.

We also received an offer on Zelda the same day and upon returning back to the area on Monday, accepted and signed the offer.  Since we will not be able to live and enjoy Zelda, our wish is for the new owners to fill the house with children and take the restoration further than we have.  One item Brent planned on building was a wrap around porch, especially after he found out the house originally had one.  An older neighbor living just down the street had grown up in the house and explained alot of the history of Zelda to us.

Jillian Grace weighed - 7 lbs 13 oz.
