My family is renting an apartment for 1 year and 2 months already. We survived! Yippy! We thought we never could because both my husband and I are dependent to our parents. We finally decided to separate and live on our own. Now it has been a year already. Now we are starting to dream of having a place of our own. I am starting to search online checking for a house. There are lots of manufactured homes that are durable, state-of-the art housing with custom features and options at prices we can afford. They are constructed from the same materials as most site-built homes but they are built in a quality-controlled, factory environment where the materials are never exposed to the elements. Not a bad idea for a start. But the search is still on…

I am so happy because both my kids are excelling in school. My eldest boy was part of the top 10 list in his class. He may not be the number 1 but he has been very consistent in getting into the top 10 list in class since he was a first grader. And I was not surprise when my youngest daughter though still in pre-school landed as the first in her class as well. Because of this, both of them deserve a treat. I asked them what they want and they both agreed that they want a vacation. To the beach? I asked them and they both agreed. I thought of staying in one of Outer Banks vacation rentals where we can have an opportunity to enjoy the beach and just sit back in our rental home and relax. My kids are looking forward to it ad that includes the parents.
