Actualization

There is light at the end of the tunnel! Our long never-ending search for a home has finally come to fruition. We found a great home, in an amazing neighborhood (Sugarhouse), with a two car garage, and a big nice yard. With the economy as bleak as it is, we feel that we got a really great deal on this home. I would post more pictures of our new found sanctuary but I would prefer to post the before and after pictures once we fix it up. The house is in great condition with all new plumbing and electric, new windows, etc. However, the first thing we plan to do is to add another bathroom in the basement (currently there is only one bathroom), and update the kitchen. I know these are no simple tasks, but I am so excited to be able to add my own personal touch to this home. I have seen too many updated homes that simply do not meet my standards and/or taste. This home has just what we want and need for the next 5-10 years - I couldn't be happier! I know that as the time grows closer for us to move in, the more and more excited I will be. Our closing date is at the end of September. This is going to be one long month of anticipation!

this is so exciting! there is nothing like having a place to call your very OWN. i can't wait to see pictures of the inside and hear about all your remodeling plans. i'm sure it will be tons of hard work, but will be so worth it. congrats again! :)
