We are so excited to share our ranch WITH YOU!

Sometimes in life, something comes along that you know in your bones is just right, something that you know you can’t pass up. If someone would have told me in 2019 that we would be here now, I would never have believed it! Nonetheless, here we are…sitting on our new property, watching the sun sink into the hills, and it absolutely feels right. It’s HOME!!

My husband saw this property first. It hadn’t come up in our general home search, and he was just scrolling around on the map one night and this one popped up. We had been casually looking for some property, tossing around ideas of buying land and building, wondering if we could live in a camping trailer or something similar with two big kids and a baby while we built. (We have mad respect for everyone who does that!) We knew we couldn’t comfortably afford to own two properties at once AND have money to build. So when we saw this particular property with a small, cozy house already on it, we were intrigued. The land in the listing photos looked really cool, but the location was just a bit too far out, the lot was just a bit too big, and the house was just a bit too small. We decided it might be interesting to look at anyway, so we headed out there the next day. AND FELL IMMEDIATELY IN LOVE. I can't even describe it. The photos online couldn’t possibly do the property a fair amount of justice. It was absolutely gorgeous.

So we turned right around and wrote an offer. And it was not accepted. We needed to sell our current house first, and that was not amicable to the sellers. Long story short…after THREE offers and over three months, we now own the land and everything on it!

This land is absolutely incredible! We have 25 acres that are fenced and cross-fenced, and 15 acres of gently rolling hills, golden at this time of the year but slowly turning green with each rain. There is a barn with three stalls, a workshop, and a carport/auto shop. We can hear cows mooing on the hills behind us, and sometimes coyotes howling at night, and we see the brightest stars in the night sky. And the SUNSETS are unmatched.

I’m sure it seems clear that this feels like the most beautiful idea of home to me!! :) Red boots in the red dirt is our heaven.
