On one lovely Sunday afternoon in November, Jonathan and I were driving home from my family's farm in Kentucky when we decided to stop for gas in the nearest little town--Mayfield. Getting off at the exit, I remembered that there was a pretty subdivision not too far away that had a house in it that we had loved to drive by earlier in our marriage. This house was featured in Southern Living when I was in college. We had loved it then, and I really couldn't remember what it looked like. Then we saw it. We gasped!
The house was for sale, so when we arrived back in Memphis, Jonny hopped online and found the listing. We found out that it was actually a Southern Living Home and viewed the floor plan. Initially the floor plan did not interest us. But seven sheets of graph paper later, we had sketched out a floor plan that we liked better than the first house we had loved! 
Last Saturday we took our graph paper plans to an architectural draftsman. We hope to have blueprints in our hands by mid-January. This will propel us toward our goal of beginning the building process in March!
Yipee!!
