The fam thinks I'm nuts, but I'm currently obsessed with this house. Alas, I can't buy until April and I doubt it will still be available. I drove by yesterday. The house itself is crap, but the land! Swoon. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2573-Small-Acres-Ln-Okemos-MI-48864/74043398_zpid/

Had to go get 10yo from a sleepover at midnight because 5th grade girls are just the worst for drama.
