You're joining me in Minnesota?! Yay for the big move! awesome The trip sounds fantastic...make sure to get some grey stuff at your birthday dinner at BOG!

Yes, Yes, Yes! BOG and the Grey stuff is delicious! I spent my 45th birthday there this year! It was one of the highlights of my trip.

I too will be there the 15-20th celebrating an anniversary! Sounds like there will be several of us there at the same time!

Thanks for sharing the blog. My condolences on your loss and also my best wishes on your new adventure!!

muchlove muchlove yay muchlove muchlove

We have 7.27 acres and a huge pole barn with a dirt floor! Mouse-Fest / Walt-Stock 2013 or bust!!

PS - Joe hates you all now.

Did I mention that as we were walking to check out the pond, the Realtor asked what we would do with it? And without hesitation I said "We'll do an Electrical Water Pageant." Joe rolled his eyes and the Realtor looked at me like I was from Mars.

I think hubs should be in charge of designing that for us.

Lat night I floated by Joe a Haunted Mansion themed room in one of the rooms upstairs, ala Heather from @DininginDisney. If you haven't seen her Haunted Mansion room, check it out. Wallpaper and themed to the hilt! I want to borrow her ideas. And joe said I could! And he was on board until I added that I want find an actual Doom Buggy. That might have been pushing it!

But you can bet it will be the most Disney-fied farm house in the mid-West!!

Sigh, I wish I lived in the US. Thank you for posting Joe's link, I too have it saved. Sorry for Joe's loss. I love the farmhouse it is beautiful and somewhere I would love to live so having an envy attack! Wow a Waltstock sounds amazing but I would have to come to that and then road trip to stay with the rest of you regulars! Seriously though Jeff and Joe have an amazing life together there, enjoy it all, keep a sense of humour and some good thermals for the winter!

You'll practically drive right past us on your way. We could caravan. And we have a 24-foot travel trailer.

I think a Walt train around the property would be a nice touch too!

Looks like would go right past me as well. So I'll join up when you go by.

We need to clean up some of the vegetation in the pond... I see twinkle lights in those trees. And it totally needs a little viewing patio where you could have a dessert party.

We need some little remote control barges like this for a building platform.
