This episode is a full-circle moment for Tracewater Homes. Jeanne and Matt share the story of one of the very first homes they ever renovated—an 1880s farmhouse that was moved 13 miles and rebuilt from the inside out while they were young parents starting their journey in construction and real estate.

Fast forward nearly three decades: the family who bought that home—Dan and Tammy—join the podcast for the very first time. They reveal the chapters written inside those walls over 28 years: renovations, additions, yard transformations, family milestones, foster care, adoption, and the memories that made the house far more than just a structure.

And the moment that reconnects everyone? A hidden time capsule discovered during a 2020 home project—complete with photos, renovation notes, and 1996 prices—sparked a message that eventually brought these two families together. It’s a conversation about legacy, craftsmanship, family, and the unexpected ways a home can keep people connected across generations.

If you’ve ever believed a home holds a story—this one proves it.
