OPINION ON REHEARING

 

* * * * * * *

The divorce decree described the property as "the parties' home and one acre of land." Extrinsic evidence could have shown that the parties owned only one home and one acre of land, which would have identified the property with reasonable certainty. See Kmiec v. Reagan, 556 S.W.2d 567, 569 (Tex. 1977). Without a statement of facts, we must presume that the property was identified with reasonable certainty by extrinsic evidence. See Guthrie v. National Homes Corporation, 394 S.W.2d 494, 495 (Tex. 1965). The motion for a rehearing is denied.
