Playing music for a living, I traveled all over, and getting from city to city was often an exhausting and debilitating part of an amazing time in my life. But it felt like nowhere else in the world. The area is beautiful, the cities are out of a novel, and the people were welcoming, warm, and excited for me and my band to be in the area.

They looked the way every kid looks Christmas Eve night. I knew better than to get too excited, but even I couldn’t help but let my imagination run crazy for a few minutes. Boy, wouldn’t it be nice to move into the house and live like a multi-millionaire. Now that I’ve been writing and designing professionally for a couple years, I’m pretty disappointed that I haven’t been back to the area in several years. What would make things a LOT easier would to have a beautiful new waterfront home waiting for me (the $250k wouldn’t hurt either). Take some down time to drool over the properties on HGTV – or, of course, yell at the television over people picking the absolute wrong home for their personalities .
For my wife and I, it’s probably our favorite way to decompress – and I’d be lying if I said our television wasn’t regularly set to HGTV simply for the watchability of all of the programs.

HBO has confirmed that award-winning composer and actor Lin-Manuel Miranda will return for the third season of the fantasy drama. We watched quietly as someone else won our home. My kids were fine—no tears, no temper tantrums—they even joked that we should drive to Colorado and demand the deed to the house, but it was still sad to see their disappointed faces. We went about our schedule just like we had the previous day. My wife and I had been channel surfing one Saturday night more than ten years ago and stumbled across HGTV’s Dream Home Giveaway.

Now most of the time when we have this talk we’re talking about working hard to build a life that brings happiness, but it’s still important to show them how luck plays a part too. My entire family, even my kids who were all pretty young, fell instantly in love with the house, valued at more than a million dollars. My wife loved the beautiful kitchen; my kids drooled over the bedrooms, arguing over how they would divvy up the rooms; and I loved the spacious entertainment area and skiing right outside the front door.

I’m like the little kid who swings and misses, but keeps getting back on the horse and swings again. In the years since, my interest has waned when I’ve read about past winners and that many have ended up selling their Dream Homes because of the sizable tax implications. My plan would have been to definitely keep it, if nothing more because I’ve joked so much with a coworker about winning the house, I couldn’t imagine giving it up. Tyler has been everything from professional musician, business owner, designer and photographer. A self-proclaimed "jack of all trades", he has spent the last decade traveling the world, producing award-winning photos and videos, launching businesses and campaigns, and raising his two boys. I have to admit that the entire Northwest region has a soft spot in my heart personally.
According to HGTV, only one of the first 10 Dream House winners has been able to hang on to their winnings. Just six of the first 21 winners actually lived in their new digs for more than a year. The longest “survivor,” the 1998 winner, kept her dream home in Florida for eight years before selling it. In your husband and my defense, they make it extremely easy to enter.
