Hello Emily. The house sounds wonderful, except not fond of the yellow shutters. But, hey I'd be thrilled with them if it meant it was mine for free! No wonder Remus always looked tired if he was the one doing the upkeep all the time. Seriously though, it is a beautiful home.

“Well, then, I guess welcome to your new home,” he bellowed with a happy smile.
I love Remus for caring so much for their happiness.

The three of them Apparated back to the Burrow around two in the afternoon and spread their news. Everybody squealed their delight except for Mrs. Weasley.
“Don’t you think it would be better to get an apartment for the first year?” she asked seriously after Emily and George told her.
I know everyone will hate me here, but, it's always the mom who has to have the voice of reason. It isn't my story, but, I'm thinking Molly is just wanting to make them think about the responsibility such a large house would be. They would be responsible for the up keep, instead of the landlord having the expense, and time it will take to keep care of it. She just wants them to be able to enjoy each other, and save their money for the first year, so they don't become a slave to their house. Those big houses take a lot of money to take care of, and outfit with new furniture. I just feel badly for Molly.
Great post Emily. Hope your having fun. I'll be wathing for your next post.
