Our new purchase
Here it is...I only remembered to take this picture while driving away after having been there for several hours...we love our house...we have lots of little and big projects to accomplish, but we love that it's ours...
Some random shots--Kate in front of the fireplace...
The house is on the left, but there are 3 hugs orange trees that line the curb right in front...there's nothing better than fresh-squeezed OJ in the morning...and since the neighbors apparently don't feel the same way...all the more for us--they are over-flowing!
We have done a lot of demolition work in the past few days...we have little idea what we're doing, but we know we can learn...everything we do we follow by saying, "what now?" To which the response is, "I don't know, let's look online." We've done a lot of painting, and a lot of demo work in the laundry area and the master bedroom...we have some gaping holes to show for it, but who cares? We'll figure it out!

Here's our front porch as we left after hours and hours of work yesterday...don't step on a nail! More pictures to follow...I never to think to take pictures...

Yay! An actual home. We'll have to come visit this summer and let Mia and Lauren play. Also love the post about the party and pictures. Thanks for all the fun times. We'll keep in touch.
Your house is adorable! Good luck with all your demo! :)
A white picket fence!!! Love it. Can't wait to be invited over...
Great house! Enjoy those oranges - get a good juicer.
Wow--a real home with a white picket fence and everything! Yes, I'm jealous! :)
Can't wait to see the after pictures when you're done with all the updating!
I too am a huge fan of the white picket fence. I'm so happy for you. Yeah for being a home owner!!
Ahh, Shannon that house looks SO amazing---with a white picket fence and all! Can't wait to see it! You have a ton going on, wow!
Lauren's 4 year pics are SO adorable. I see so much of you in her, it's crazy. She's such a beautiful girl.
Congrats on the new house, and all these exciting new things that go with it. I'm thrilled for you guys!
your house is so totally cute -- i love it!! i'm so happy for you guys. enjoy those oranges...and the joys of home ownership :)
Your house is adorable. The yard looks great, and now I have orange tree envy. We are still waiting for the day that we will own our own home. ~Sigh~
Congrats on buying a home! This is so late in response, but thanks for letting us know your pink house was available. You are so sweet. I'm sure it's rented by now, and the thought of moving makes me want to cry. With Jason only having one year left I would like to avoid any moves. I hate moving!!! I want my next move to be someplace where Jason has a job! Wishful thinking, right?
What a fun house- imagine orange trees! (A novelty out here). Be sure to post after shots of the completed projects.
Awesome House!!! I have been waiting for some pictures so thanks for posting them even though I am sure you are so busy!!! Congratulations on your new home and I hope the fixing up goes well!
