The house is beginning to feel more and more like it is ours and it is our new home! We have already owned it now for a week, and have done constant work on it.......even though you might not be able to tell.
Here is a snap shot of how things have been going thus far:
* Still working on all the outside trim of the house, scrapping and painting it
* Working on actually unpacking our stuff, but since we plan to do ALOT of interior painting we have been holding off on decorations and picture frames going up.
* The collapsed pool in the backyard has been a source of struggle, the tarp thing weighed like 250lbs since it was all wet, and smelled like sewer! So that is now gone!!!!!
* Cleaned out the backyard shed (for those who saw it knows that was no easy job!) Some poor squirrel lost a lot of hard work.......there was just a HUGE pile of shredded leaves and news paper. And not to mention there were tons of old pool chemicals, float toys, and TONS of other junk.
* Have begin painting the super dark red bedroom (in pictures: this is just the first coat of primer.......who in the world paints the ceiling dark red!?)
It is going really well though, we keep having to tell ourselves that you can't do everything at once and it will all come together eventually! We will be sure to post before and after pictures once some of the rooms start coming together. You realize how little furniture you have when you move from a two bedroom apartment to a 1800 sq ft house!
Our Backyard Fun.............
