12 years in the making

The news has been broken to all appropriate people so I can finally blog it! Last weekend my parents came down to Kansas City, and while they were here they found and bought a home. I swear it's an act of God for these two to decide on anything, much less a home and it finally happened. Here it is...




My mother has wanted to move here for like 12 years, and she was so jealous when I got to come before she did. She has ruby red slippers all over the house, she'll say longingly, "There's no place like home." Finally that will be true.

My mother loves the kitchen in this house, which is as nice as hers at home, which is a big deal. But pictured below is what has sold my Dad on the whole thing...



That's right, it has a rollbar. Never has a lawn mower been more ridiculous. But it comes with the house and the 3 1/2 acres and the pond and the hot tub. Sounds like a sweet deal for everyone.

Kansas City get ready, the rest of the Andersons (minus my stubborn little brother) are coming. This city might never be the same.
