Spiral, Horizontal Line Spinning

Our House!  yes we were lucky enough to have become home owners in 2003.  We love our home and have spent many, many hours inside and out decorating, landscaping etc.  We both love antiques and thrift shopping is an addictive passion we both share.  We arrived in the States with 7 suitcases and started to build a life together, we're constantly amazed at what we've achieved in a such a short time.  Here's a few pics of our house, our garden, our girls (the cats) and a glimpse at our life together. Enjoy :)

Arrhhh, summer time in Michigan is beautiful!   - lots of late evening BBQ's, swims and just good old relaxation & quality time with friends is called for after getting dirty in the garden or doing yard work!
