Ron and I are honored to have WhisperWood Cottage featured in the January 2011 issue of Cottages & Bungalows Magazine! We were shocked when we received an email from the editor of C&B. Our cottage? What a way to kick off the year!

The article (pp 56-65) is called "Do-It-Yourself Cottage"...

    Congratulations! What a great honor! I'll have to go out and look for that issue! Do they mention that it's a double wide? Just wondering! I'm proud of the fact my home was a double wide and made it into a magazine and I know you are to! No better feeling than to open the pages of the an issue and see pages printed with pictures of your own HOME! I'm so excited for you! You guys have done a wonderful job on every nook and cranny of that house!

    Sweet girl, I can't think of anyone who deserves it more. The only thing I can think of to make it even more fabulous would be if they could put the mouse thingy on it so everyone could see where y'all started and how it ended. You and Ron have worked so hard and your home is reflects all that love...and sweat!
    Two questions...one...will you still play with your plain ol' friend in texas and two...is that your photos they used? If so...double congratulations!
    Debbie
    P.S. I know that is all your styling 'cause nobody does it like you.
