    This is where I grew up and i can’t believe it is all gone!!!!! I am very sad because that was really the only home that I have lived in that felt like home to me!! I had thoughts of buying it once i found out that it was in forclosure just because my mom and step dad did everything they could to improve that house. We lived there for 13-14 years. Like I said I am overcome with sadness and don’t really know how to feel right now!!!!
