Move over, Jonses. The Common Senseneys moved into the neighborhood.


Just a brief intro about our family: My husband, Joe, and I met when in high school. We began dating while I was a junior, engaged when I was a senior, and married just on September 2' 2006, just 3 months after my high school graduation. 

We had our first child, a boy, Ashton Joseph, almost exactly a year later. Then or second followed a little over two years later, another boy, Harrison "Harry" Lee. Then two and a half more years passed and we had a daughter, Shiloh Eleanor. 

We had to relocate for Joe's job and I left my dream farm behind to embark on this new adventure with him. We're about 2 hours from friends and family, so, while I'm making new friends, I'm also renovating our 1978 ranch style house in the most inexpensive way I can, even if it means rolling up our sleeves and doing most of the work ourselves. It was well built, just needed some updating. And by updating, I mean it looked like the Brady Bunch just moved out. Yeah.
