Lifestyle

Normally when I’ve shared tours of our new homes, they’ve been rentals. Living the military life these past 20 years has prevented us from buying a home, since we never wanted to be landlords or have me and the kids stick behind if we couldn’t sell it when it came time to relocate. But THIS […]
