My family is composed of my father, mother, a younger sister, an older sister, who unfortunately passed away, and myself. I grew up being the oldest child, for my oldest sister passed away before I was born. Although, I never got to meet my older sister her absence has taught me to value the importance of family.

After experiencing a stay at the house in Charlottesville, I’d say that the title fits. The house in Charlottesville was really amazing. It was a large four story house with a huge backyard that had a privacy fence around it. When you walk into the house you are in a foyer where there are quilts hanging that have been made especially for the Ronald McDonald House of the foyer there are offices discreetly placed so that they do not take away from the feeling of home. The kitchen is huge with tables at both ends and counters on both side walls with sinks and dishwashers, coffee makers, toasters, and microwaves. In the middle is a huge island with stools on both ends and stoves on both sides of the island. There are always two or three bowls on the island filled with quick snacks. There is a huge deck off of the kitchen with a gas grill and tables and chairs. There is a quiet room off of the kitchen, it consists of a real fireplace and a computer, and it is so much like a home living-room. The two floors above the kitchen is where the bed rooms are located each room has a queen size.bed and a twin size trundle bed where two can sleep. For every two bedrooms there is a bathroom between them. Down in the basement is a large family room with a big screen television and a large play area with everything possible for children to have

It has four beds and two bathrooms, plus a pool in the backyard. The neighborhood provides a good environment for the whole family. With a two story home, 9 rooms, and even a fireplace, this home fits what they wanted in a home originally. They chose this home based on price, whether or not it provided everything their family needed, and on the look and feel of the home. Their home zip code is 6652036.

I’ve spent my whole life living in that house ever since i moved from Georgia. We were the first people to ever live in that house, I even remember seeing them build the stairs in the house. I remember coloring the walls with every shade of the rainbow most the time it was either markers or crayons, but that’s what they make house paint for right? My room is one of my favorite

I was just a small town girl living in Grants, New Mexico. There is a saying that if you blink you will miss it driving down the highway. I was born and raised in Milan; it was just a little portion of Grants. My entire mom’s side of the family lived close by us and my dad’s side of the family was in Espanola, except for my grandma Yolie my dad’s mom. I grew up knowing almost everyone in that small town. The challenge in living in Grants was there were no available jobs. My parents had to drive back and forth to and from Albuquerque. As I was in kindergarten through second grade I would stay at my auntie’s house early in the morning or with my grandma while both my parents were in Albuquerque. Family was everything to me or at least what I

In today's era people are looking for that one perfect home that will make your soul feel a shrill. The house on 1738 Red Death road is the house to check out. The exterior is for sure to make you in a sickening dreary mood. As you look at the spooky mysterious house you can see that the window are cracked and you can hear the howl for the wind.

Once they got out of the airport and onto the highway, the roads were less abound with cars and taxis. Tim couldn't help but think that Floridians must have a replete of orange juice in their refridgerators if the amount of orange trees in the area was any indication. Their subdivision was about 45 minutes from the airport. Everyone in Tim's family had seen the house only in pictures except for Tim's father who had made two trips to Florida since the purchasing of the home. When the taxi pulled up in front of 3567 North Lake Dr., Tim was still shocked at how magnificent the house was. The house was enormous. It was a weird green tinge; it reminded Tim of throwup. He had no idea why his mom would pick such a disgusting color. The house was two stories with a balcony occupying the second floor and through the front door, you could see a beautiful crystal chanderlier. To the right of the home was a three car garage attached to the house; to the left was a pool house. The mansion had way more rooms than their small home in China.

I didn’t grow up in Haven, obviously I went to Buhler, I lived in Hutchinson until seventh grade. I first lived in a house on seventeenth street but I don’t remember it well, I was very young. I remember my house on twenty sixth street more, because I lived in it for most of my life. It was across the street from a large field and a church that I went to for Awanas with my best friend, Logan Pettay, who lived across the street. We used to play on the church playground a lot because it was close to both of us and we liked the outdoors. Logan lived three houses down from me, we would walk to each others houses and hang out all day, sometimes stay a whole week at each others house. My moms work was a block away from our house, so when I was in

Here in Oregon is where the three of us became a family; mom, Jelly a.k.a. Angelica (my sister) and me. Years went by as we assimilated to life here in Oregon. My mother worked hard to give us kids everything we desired and needed, all the while trying desperately not to be her mother. At the time we were all unaware of how alike my mother and grandmother could be.

The people that I associate my home and relatilves’ houses are my family. I associate the beach and sly park/ lake tahoe with family also because I go to those places with them in

The next house I observed was in the Bon Ton Historic District of Bozeman and is called Mendenhall Residence. The architect that designed this home was from Grand Rapids, Michigan and was named D.S. Hopkins. However the owner of the house back in 1888 was John Mendenhall. The house is also a Victorian Style home like that first house I observed and includes steep gables, a bay window, two-story porch, and very defined spindlework. The lot size of this house is 9,191 square feet and the house size is 3,110 square feet. This house was also built in 1888 but was renovated in 1985 and now combines a litte more traditional style into the home. This house is two stories and does include not only one but two grand fireplaces, and a detached garage
