As of Monday the 13th we are officially home owners (for better or for worse). Here is the front with the beautiful Live Oak that is taking over the front yard. One of my favorite parts of the house.
Here is our giant living room.
And Hannah's room, though it could be any of the three smaller bedrooms because they all looked about the same when we bought it.
This is Josh and I as we started demolition a few hours after closing.
A little back ground on the house to understand the urgency for the demolition. The previous owners had three very nice and very huge German Shepherds that seemed to have full rain of the house and it really smelled like it. First order of business was to de-pop corn all of the ceilings and rip out all of the carpet to get rid of the smell and any buggies that the dogs left behind, and then paint all of the bedrooms (to continue to get the smell out) before the new carpet came in. That gave us a week of working during naps and after Josh got home from work. To say the least we are one tired family.
Here is Hannah as I get ready to put here in the car at 11pm after another long night of construction.
We will have pictures of the more beautified house in the next week or two when we have time to take some.
CONGRATS!!! Oh how fun, although tiring... ;) The house looks great and I'm excited to see how it looks after all the remodeling is done.
