[speaker001:] okay so you said that you live in Coppell
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] so what is your house like
[speaker002:] it's a two bedroom two bath duplex brick
[speaker001:] oh well that's neat uh-huh is it one that you're renting or buying oh
[speaker002:] and uh no we own it yeah well our side uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker001:] yeah yeah well that's kind of neat that you can even though it's a duplex you can still buy that's good do you have any children
[speaker002:] uh-huh yeah no huh-uh do you
[speaker001:] yes I have two children and our home is really too small for us right now
[speaker002:] um-hum ours is too we outgrew it when we moved in
[speaker001:] yeah we moved from an apartment that was really small and at the time we just had a little baby that was five months old
[speaker002:] uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker001:] and we moved into this house in Garland it's in one of the older areas of town and one thing I really like is it has big trees everywhere and
[speaker002:] uh-huh um-hum
[speaker001:] you know lots of shade and squirrels and birds and real pretty but the the house is real small it has less than a thousand square feet
[speaker002:] um yeah oh wow
[speaker001:] yeah it's real little
[speaker002:] y'all are cramped
[speaker001:] yeah and now I have a daughter now my the one that was five months old is seven years old and the one and I have another one that's three and a half and I have all these clothes and toys and stuff that we're just trying to find places to put
[speaker002:] uh-huh uh-huh wow uh-huh how many bedrooms is it
[speaker001:] well they advertised it as a three bedroom house because it has a a built on addition room you know but the room that's built on doesn't have a closet
[speaker002:] uh-huh uh-huh ah
[speaker001:] so um the people that lived here before us did use it for a bedroom but we have always just put like our computer and extra toys and books and you know it's kind of a catchall room
[speaker002:] um-hum uh-huh
[speaker001:] but it sure is nice to have it
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] when the kids come over to play they all go out there to play with the Barbies and that kind of stuff so
[speaker002:] uh-huh how fun
[speaker001:] yeah that works out good and I'm thankful I have two girls because they're in bunk beds and so you know they can share a room and uh make for more space that way
[speaker002:] uh-huh uh-huh and how old's the youngest
[speaker001:] she's three and a half yeah
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] so um and right now we have their clothes on uh like double racks you know in the closet we made a higher and a lower and it works out fine but they're just about to get too tall where the dresses are beginning to drag you know and
[speaker002:] uh-huh um-hum  um-hum
[speaker001:] uh we're going to have to figure out a new idea but we're we're kind of looking around and wanting to move into a bigger home and uh hoping to be able to do that within a year or so so that would be nice
[speaker002:] yeah yeah that's what we'd like to do
[speaker001:] yeah is Coppell a nice area to live
[speaker002:] oh it's wonderful place to live and they I don't have any kids so I don't really know but they say that we have wonderful schools
[speaker001:] well I think I've heard a lot uh about Coppell schools that they're real good and that's neat do you do you hope to have children or are you not planning on having any or ah I see well do you have any pets
[speaker002:] um-hum um-hum um-hum um nah I don't think so nah oh of course those are my kids I have two dogs
[speaker001:] uh yeah ah so do they stay inside or ah well that's neat
[speaker002:] yeah they're inside dogs they're my babies
[speaker001:] yeah well what are the colors in your house
[speaker002:] uh um kind of a mauve and gray
[speaker001:] oh I bet that's pretty
[speaker002:] um-hum and then the kitchen's kind of a a country pink and country blue and
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] it's all done in cows I'm a cow nut
[speaker001:] oh well that's neat I like cows too
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] yeah well our house was redone uh our house is very old also it's like thirty seven years old yeah and it was redone before we moved in which I'm
[speaker002:] so uh-huh wow
[speaker001:] thankful for that but the it was redone at the time probably when earth tones were in you know everything is like
[speaker002:] yeah yeah
[speaker001:] the carpet's kind of a tan and brown and has um
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] paneling in the living room and lots of lots of tans and lots of browns but the good thing is you can bring out other colors from that you know so
[speaker002:] um-hum oh yeah yeah
[speaker001:] uh that's worked out good in the in the kitchen they put real pretty blue and tan um wallpaper and had done it up with blues so that's nice that's
[speaker002:] uh-huh oh sounds pretty
[speaker001:] yeah yeah we've enjoyed living here it's it's close to my uh oldest daughter's school and that makes it really handy too
[speaker002:] oh um-hum um-hum
[speaker001:] and she really likes her school so and we're so close to shopping and just
[speaker002:] well good that's an important factor there
[speaker001:] yeah what uh how about in Coppell I've always imagined it kind of out away from everything
[speaker002:] well you know now we have that new mall in Lewisville and that's just like a mile or two from our house
[speaker001:] oh really oh well that's nice
[speaker002:] but when we first moved to Coppell it's what six years ago we didn't even have a grocery store
[speaker001:] oh wow
[speaker002:] and now we have four and Coppell's not really big enough to support four four grocery stores
[speaker001:] oh yeah yeah but it does sound like it's definitely growing
[speaker002:] so oh much very much in fact it's about the size now I moved down here from Chicago what twenty three years ago and to Lewisville
[speaker001:] yeah oh uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker002:] and Coppell's now about the size that Lewisville was when when I moved down here
[speaker001:] oh I see well when we first moved here we moved here from Lubbock and we almost moved to Lewisville that was our second choice yeah behind Garland we at the time we thought we might buy a mobile home
[speaker002:] uh-huh oh really
