First Step to a New Life; a Home

     On August 24th we officially close on our home and become First Time HOME BUYERS! This journey we are stepping into is bound to be a difficult one. The home is pushing 60 yrs of age and is in dire need of some repairs! We decide we were the couple to do it and so 8/24 we will start doing it! I will ensure that I chronicle this journey every step of the way.

     I will post new stories of our daunting challenges and photos of the labor we will put in! We are doing almost 90% of this remodel ALONE which while scary is bound to be interesting! Below you can find our "befores" and keep your eyes peeled for the soon to come "afters"!

This is our first home!


This is our first Living room!



This is our first Dining Room!



This is our first Kitchen!



This is our first 2 bedrooms!




This is our first bathroom! (and the only one we will have while remodeling the master suite yikes)



Wish us luck, as we will need it! I will make sure to update as often as possible!
