The house

Thats right. Time to blog about the house. We have been in the new house for a few weeks now and things are starting to come together. There are just 2 boxes left to unpack, but still plenty of organizing to do. Luckily we have been getting some sweet craigslist deals, which have helped us with the house's lack of storage.

The fence and gate are completed and fully functional but we have yet to put in any grass. Sadly the saturn decided to start falling apart so we got to put the money we planned to spend on the yard, into the car. So stay tuned (probably next year) for pictures of the yard.

We still have some work to do to finish up some of the rooms but here is what we have 'finished' so far. And just incase you forgot what it looks like, or never saw it in the first place, here is the front of our little house.

The box around the tree used to be about 3.5 ft high, not sure why, and is currently being tuned into a bench.

And here is the sunroom...
The cedar chest, coat rack and retro dresser were all craigslist finds.

Next we enter into our front/living/family/tv room.


Our bedroom is the only one that has been lucky enough to receive paint and was the first room to be finished. we thought it would be nice to have a finished space where we could get away from the mess of moving.

There you have it. The guest room is nearing completion as well as the dinning/computer room. But those might get put on hold to finish up the baby's room. We'll see.

A big thanks to everyone who helped us move and settle in. We couldn't have done it on our own. At least not without a whole lot of yelling and excessive cursing.
