Hey, everyone! Let me take you on a picture tour of our new house! We should close on it by the end of the week! Hooray!
Front view with Jason and girls on the side. We are planning to put a metal roof on and paint the windows and trim this summer. Not sure what color yet.
Front porch
View 1 of the kitchen. The yellow makes it feel happy!
Standing inside the front door looking to the kitchen.Then turn around and you'll see:
This entry/office type space. We hope our big corner desk will fit there but if not, we'll figure something else out.
Turning around a little more and looking into the living room. It's bigger than it looks in this picture.
The fireplace in the living room. You can see the kitchen off to the side.
Standing in the hallway that comes off the living room. Master bedroom is to the left and bathroom straight ahead. Girl's room is left/behind me.
Looking into the master bedroom
His and Her closets in the master bedroom (YAY!)
I claim this one! (It's bigger!)
Jason's closet
Upstairs bathroom. Notice the nice long counter - a must in MY house! I also really like the color scheme of this bathroom so I don't need to change it. Plus I love the tile in the shower!
Girls' room. I am NOT a fan of the paw prints going around the room. We'll see if it does get changed because Jason likes it.
Door in the kitchen leading downstairs
Stairway. Look at that carpet! That will be changed sometime in the future. My washer and dryer will go at the bottom of the stairs just to the right there. You can see the storage box thing the last owners used to store detergent, etc.
At the bottom of the stairs looking out into the basement. Sorry the picture is so dark!
Downstairs fireplace. It's like a little taste of home for me because my parents have one just like this in their basement.
One little storage area in basement. I think that this will turn into the sort of "play" area where all the toys are put. But only after I change that horrendous carpet!
Downstairs bathroom. Nice counter again! Shower is behind the door. It will be nice having 2 bathrooms - especially with all the girls at our house!
One of the bedrooms downstairs. I will someday take down that "awesome" wallpaper and also put some carpet in there. This is the smallest bedroom.
The closet space in downstairs bedroom
Second downstairs bedroom. Again, carpet has GOT to go sometime!
Second bedroom again
Basement leading to food storage room. The fireplace is just to the right (to orient you).
Ta da! My food storage room! I'm SO excited!
More shelves in same room
Garage door (we hope our van will fit through it! It might be kinda tight!
Elena standing inside the garage. There is a workbench/shop area on the side of the garage which makes it pretty big inside.
The back covered patio. Garage is to the right.
Fruit trees (but we don't know what kind). The yard needs some TLC but we are excited to do that this summer. We are going to plant grass and dig up that concrete circle in the middle of the yard. BTW, the backyard is fully fenced (great for little kids!)
Looking inside the big shed in the backyard. We have alley-access to this shed and it has a concrete slab in front of it. It did have stray cats living in it so it stinks but we'll fix that!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the carpets in the basement bedrooms as well as the green wallpaper in the one! Why whould you EVER want to change it!?! Don't worry by the time you have the money to change everthing, your basement will be back in style!LOL.
Can't wait for you to get all moved in and I have the most perfect table for you. HEE HEE And a freezer that might work as well!
congrats! Welcome to home ownership. Now all we need is $$$ to change everything we want and fix it asap! Don't forget to get the $8000 tax rebate! If you need help e-mail me.
YAY! I am so excited for you! That is so awesome! Congrats! It looks awesome! There is almost always things that you want to change and improve, but that is part of the fun of owning your own house! Good Luck with all the changes, if you need help, Jesse would be more than willing to come out and help with some of the remodeling. Hope you get to close soon! Congrats again!
A first house is so fun. We may not be much help remodeling, but I can watch the kids when you need it.
The orange carpet is staying; its awesome.
I love it! It's fun being able to have your own place and do what you want with it!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Hope the closing went well and you're getting all moved in by now. I'm jealous of your fruit trees (despite not knowing WHAT fruit. Makes it that much more fun)
