Happy 1 year homeowner anniversary to us!! Wow, I can't believe we moved into our house a year ago already. I really wish time would slow down some but it seems to go by faster each year. Funny to think last year this time we were living with a friend, renting the garage of the house we were about to own. Crazy I know! Didn't make sense to move things into storage for a week while we waited for our house to close and get painted so we could just move in! Instead, we had to pay $50 a day for the first 5 days then $100 a day after that to rent the garage of a house that was ours! Seemed to be one of the longest processes!
As for our house, we haven't really done much... Painted the whole interior, changed some hardware and spent a small fortune on all new appliances. (which wasn't something we were planning to do but when they break and you own the place you have to deal with it!) For some reason we didn't take any before pictures of the house and I have no idea why we spaced on doing that. Excited to move I guess!
This was our first taste of the yard work that was in store for us after there was a small storm when we first moved in the house! Woof!! There are 18 fir trees in our backyard so keeping up with the yard has proven to be the biggest challenge for us!
Ah, a much better picture of how we are able to enjoy our backyard instead of being overwhelmed by wind destruction! :)
I wish we had more interior pictures of the house...One day I suppose. The "to-do" list seems to keep growing. Replacing the carpets, painting the outside since the house is currently peach!!! Updating bathrooms and counter tops blah blah blah.....However, the reality is we are a young married couple in our 20's, with a kid (and one on the way) So pinching pennies is the name of the game for us right now! We are just thankful to have a nice roof over our heads, and for that I am thankful everyday!
