🏡 My dear mom is selling her beautiful home! It’s a brick 3606 sq. ft., 4-bed, 3.5-bath, 4-car home in the custom section of Hudson Forest. She’s zoned to Memorial High School, Spring Branch Middle School and Memorial Drive Elementary.

This home has absolutely incredible natural light pouring in. The back of the home looks out to the forest. She has a four-car tandem garage, extra parking in her driveway, new porcelain countertops in the kitchen, butler’s and laundry room, tall ceilings throughout, top floor guest suite, elevator, and an epic storage room adjacent to the garage that our whole family has put to VERY good use over the years😉.

Showings start 4/11/26. Our family is helping her through this move and with the showings. If you’d like to schedule a showing or have any questions, please call or text Andy at (713) 444-6379!

We would be so grateful if you could share this post to anyone who might be interested. The website for the property is in my bio. Thank you! 🏡

Rorate Cæli 🕯️

Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
Be not wroth very sore, O Lord, neither remember iniquity forever:
Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Sion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation:
Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee.
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
We have sinned, and are as an unclean thing, and we all do fade as a leaf:
and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away;
thou hast hid thy face from us: and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen;
that ye may know me and believe me: I, even I, am the Lord,
and beside me there is no Saviour: and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, my salvation shall not tarry:
I have blotted out as a thick cloud thy transgressions: Fear not, for I will save thee:
For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Redeemer.
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.

Rejoice!

Sending a heartfelt message of joy this third week of Advent, Gaudete Sunday. During the season of advent, a penitential (purple vestments/candles) season, we pause mid-season to look joyfully (pink/rose vestments/candle) at the Messiah’s long-awaited coming as well as looking and preparing for His coming at the end of time.

Happy Gaudete Sunday!
