The In-Laws Home


After literally several years of searching my in-laws aka The Nana & The Papa finally purchased a new home. They had lived in a lovely home for over 40 years that they built themselves board by board, brick by brick. It was home that their children grew up in and that their grand children were introduced to extended family in. It held many many memories so their new home had to be something special to make them want to move. It was a tall tall order but finally last summer they found the one in North Georgia!
Here are just a few pictures that I snapped during our visit at Thanksgiving. It was the first time we were able to visit their beautiful new home.

The front porch is just gorgeous! I love all the rock and the arches.

This is the beautiful window to their dining room. Come on inside and see some more.

Yes, I know The Nana is probably gasping cause I am sharing a pic of her foyer with shoes every where. Trust me when I say that their foyer ONLY looks like this when we invade!;) 

And here is the other side of that window I showed you outside. This is one of my favorite rooms in the entire house!! I am also loving their new Paula Deen dining set they purchased after the moved in.
Their kitchen is so open and spacious. It did not have an island so The Nana brought hers from their previous home. It looks like it has always been here.


Look at the beautiful moldings! They are thru out the entire home.

A dreamy gas log fireplace! A fireplace with a rock surround makes my heart go pitter pat.

Here is the opposite side of the living room that looks into the kitchen. Some more of the beautiful trim work! Believe it or not The Papa is not a fan of it.

This is their back patio which is another favorite spot of mine.

You can not beat the views! Their lot backs up to just trees so they will never have anybody behind them. There is even a creek back there somewhere.

We are so happy and thrilled that The Nana & The Papa found a home to make them happy! Though we wished it could have been out here with us we are so glad that they are now near my sister in law and her husband and The Nana's extended family! They are always on the go doing something or seeing somebody! It makes our hearts happy.

  4. It's beautiful for sure, but I was thinking they were moving to downsize. If that is downsized for Nana and Papa, I want to age like them!

    Your in~laws new home is just beautiful. I love the Paula Deen dining set. I looked at the same one at Dillards. Now seeing how pretty it looks, I wish that I would have gotten it.
