From buying your first to selling your last, let’s talk about how I can help in your journey ahead. https://TheRealEstateGals.com/

Most of my clients are happy families, but I also have the skills to handle the transition for divorcing couples. From your first to your last, the process of buying or selling a home is about so much more than a transaction. It’s about beginning a new life together, raising a family, starting a new adventure, creating memories and sometimes starting over. Real estate is more than just a business to me. It’s about service and service is my passion. It’s my goal to make every single client feel like they are my only client. Real Estate has ALWAYS been about relationships for me. I have invested countless hours learning the art of real estate and maintaining the respect of my clients. Getting to know them, and building lasting relationships is really part of who I am. I celebrate with a full heart when a client calls to cancel their listing because they have decided to save their marriage. I weep with my clients when they don’t get the house of their dreams, and rally around them to encourage them to wait for “their” home. I listen to family dramas, squabbles and stories just like a counselor. I honestly enjoy spending time with them and being part of their family. What else do you need to know about me?

Moving In day could best be described as organized chaos…although “organized” might be generous. 😂 The countertops went in. Appliances were being installed. Landscapers were outside. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, the moving truck arrived.

Dan has maintained all along that as long as we have a working kitchen and a toilet, we’re moving in. Apparently those are his only requirements for civilized living. 😂 So, we moved in.

I was washing floors just ahead of the movers, trying to create clean spaces for furniture while trades were still working around us. Our movers were incredibly patient and kind as we navigated the craziness. For a while, I honestly wondered if I would ever see the other side of all those boxes.

But the dishes are unpacked. We have a kitchen. We have a toilet. And we are HOME. ❤️ These videos are a bit behind, but still important to share the crazyness of how this whole Ugly House has been unfurling.

A huge thank you to Agreed Moving Inc. for being so patient with us and absolutely outstanding in your field. The Ugly House isn’t finished yet - not even close. But she’s finally ours to live in. 🏡❤️

P.S. I'm beginning to think that The Ugly House needs a new name because she's becoming mighty pretty. Should I hold a naming contest maybe? Let me know what you think and maybe I'll launch that next week.

I’ve been honoured to be asked to write a piece for Living Local Magazine and this one is close to my heart.

You might recognise the story. It’s Sarah’s.

A woman in the middle of a divorce, scrolling listings late at night, quietly asking herself a question so many women ask when facing a major real estate decision alone.

Can I actually do this?

The answer is yes. And the journey to get there - the finances, the fear, the moment everything shifted, and the home she ultimately chose for herself and her daughters - is one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever had the privilege of being part of.

It’s in this month’s issue of Living Local Magazine and it is absolutely worth the read.

THEY NEVER GAVE UP ❤️
65 Years of Marriage. A Lifetime of Starting Over.

Sixty-five years ago today, two young people made a promise, having no idea what life would ask of them.

Their story began on a dance floor in the late 1950s. He was a farmer and she was a city girl dreaming of country life. On October 21, 1961, Allan and Pauline Horsburgh became husband and wife.

Six children arrived in less than seven years. I was the oldest. We grew up on a farm where money was scarce, work was endless, and keeping your word mattered. My parents worked tirelessly. Dad farmed, hauled livestock and ran his trucking business. Mom raised six children, worked the fields, gardened, cooked and preserved food for winter.

But life wasn't always kind. Tuberculosis devastated their dairy herd but they started over.

Their century-old barn burned, taking 96 cattle with it. I still remember walking home from school and seeing the flames.
They rebuilt. Then violent winds flattened the new barn before it was finished. They started over.

Years later, illness threatened Dad's ability to walk. With determination and dedicated therapists, he recovered. He's a stubborn man. He never gave up.

Eventually, as their children began leaving home, they sold the family farm and began another chapter on the farm they've called home for 40 years. There were countless hardships and opportunities to say, "Enough." But they never gave up.

Not on their livelihood. Not on their family. And not on each other.

Their marriage wasn't a fairy tale. Affection wasn't freely expressed in our home. Love was quiet, practical, often found in sacrifice and responsibility. But today, what touches me most is their friendship. They reminisce, laugh and share memories that belong only to them. They are the keepers of each other's history.

Sixty-five years. Six children. Countless challenges. One enduring promise.

**Happy 65th anniversary, Mom and Dad!**

Your legacy is the generations that follow and the example of perseverance you've given us. You didn't have an easy life. You built an enduring one.

And that is a love story worth telling. ❤️

Today I'm 64.

There's something about turning 64 that makes you pause and reflect. It's an age when conversations begin to shift toward retirement, slowing down, and the next chapter of life.

But here's the thing. I don't feel like I'm winding down. I've lived enough life to know that things don't always unfold the way we imagined. There have been extraordinary blessings, unexpected detours, heartbreaks, and battles I never thought I'd face. But through it all, God has been faithful.

And somewhere along the way, I've learned that growing older isn't about becoming less. It's about becoming more of who you were created to be.

More comfortable in your own skin. More willing to embrace the unexpected. More intentional about the people and things that matter. And perhaps most importantly, more willing to extend grace, not only to others, but to yourself.

Every season of life has brought its own lessons and blessings, and I believe this one will be no different. There's still so much I want to experience, so much I hope to accomplish, and so much more to discover. I'm still learning, still dreaming, and looking forward to all that God has in store.

I want to keep my heart soft, my faith strong, my spirit young, and my eyes open to the possibilities ahead.

Because I believe God isn't finished with me yet.

So, as I step into my 65th year, I don't believe my best years are behind me. I believe some of my most beautiful chapters are still waiting to be written.
