We are excited, frightened, scared, anxious and over the moon all at once. And with any luck we'll finally have that house we've always been dreaming about. It's always been our number one goal to own our very own, fully detached house and we've been working and saving very hard to achieve it. Townhouse living is great but our own house would be a dream come true.
Not to mention all the new decorating and organizing projects we'll be able to tackle and share with our fabulous readers.
But with every good there is a little bad, we'll have to say goodbye to our Beloved Manor. We poured blood, sweat and tears into this place, and I will miss it dearly, but I am sure as sugar, we'll be able to make our new house a home.
Here's a little recap of The Maillardville Manor:
and most recently, the Laundry
For now, my biggest question is, since we will no longer be living in Maillardville, can it still be the Maillardville Manor? Or will I have to rename our new home? or rename the blog? Goodness so many questions, But for now I'll just be happy. I'm so excited I'll be able to share another home with you. (truth be told I was running out of projects in this one) :)
It can still be Maillardville Manor!!! That's such a great name! Good luck on selling!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your plans for a new house. I take it Maillardville is the area where your townhouse is located. Why not just add onto the blog name, "Maillardville Manor - The Sequel" or something to that effect?
ReplyDeleteGood luck! How far into the suburbs are you going? My husband works near YVR and he commutes to work approx. 1.5 hours each way. We were able to purchase a 4 bedroom house out here for the what we would have paid for a 1 bedroom apartment in the city. For us, it is definitely worth it! Have fun house hunting...that is my favorite part :)
ReplyDeleteOooh! How exciting! Best wishes on the sale and purchase and I can't wait to see how everything turns out!
ReplyDeleteMany Blessings,
M.
PS - I'd keep the name. No matter where you go, it's home!
I'd keep your name! How exciting! Best of luck to you in the sale of your town home. You have fixed it up so beautifully. I'm sure you'll have a quick sale. Have fun in the new chapter of your lives and decorating your new space!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much girls!!!! I was concerned all weekend going back and forth on the name! I think i'll keep it! I really didn't want to change it, and you've given me the encouragement to keep it! Lee's happy too! He's like the Maillardville Manor. He says it works because it's all M's, we are the Malinek's living in The Maillardville Manor :)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to think your dream will come true! I know you will make it as sweet as your town home.
ReplyDeleteooh so many possibilities with a new home! I love the name, by the way.
ReplyDeleteMay I ask who makes that gorgeous wallpaper in your bedroom??
Thanks so much, we're really excited!
ReplyDeleteAs for the wallpaper, it's made by The Wallpaper Company we bought it from The Home Depot. It was a while ago so I'm not sure if it's still in stock but the home depot has great prices on wallpaper and some really cute patterns. You'll be sure to find something really fabulous.
Onwards and upwards towards your dream.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for a speedy sale and in finding your new home. I've no doubt you will make it beautiful!

Good Luck during your move! Looking forward to seeing all the amazing and organzied spaces you create in your new home!
