The reality is even better than the dream.

Default Our dream to be!

We're with you guys! We only came once on a preview in January 2009- had bad weather and not too many days. We knew then we loved it and this is where we wanted to be. In October 2010, my sister and her husband, whom we brought with us on that first visit, announced they were going to buy a house here. Long story short, we went along "just to see what's out there", and 3 days later, we both bought homes! Closed in January, sister is down here, but we're not quite ready yet. We're shooting for the beginning of 2012! We are coming down the end of the month for my birthday to visit our beautiful new home, so we can validate all the great things my sister has been telling us everyday! This is truly our dream and we can't wait to live it!

Welcome!
It's wonderful to hear that you couldn't be happier; my husband and I feel the same way! We just feel blessed and lucky that every day we get to wake up and live in Paradise. We're both still working -- doesn't matter. At least we get to be here YEARS earlier than we ever dreamed! Glad to know you're lovin' life in The Villages, too.
