Early Changes

There were a few things that needed to be changes before we could move in.

Most of the rooms in the house hd ugly light fixtures that did not put out much light, so we updated almost all of them. The closets, Laundry room, and basement all had bare incadesent bulbs.



Front Porch



Dinning Room



Hall, Bathroom, and the second part of our Kitchen



Closets



Laundry Room



Basement

Also needing to be fixed was the shower head. Peter, being 6'4" is used to being too tall to stand up straight under a shower head, but the one that was in this house was too short for me to stand under. Home Depot solved our problem.



Lastly we bought a refrigerator and stove. I was excited for the door ice and dispenser. Peter was thrilled with the Stove being as and having a convection oven.




Thank you Micheal and Diane for driving down to help clean the house and install all this stuff.

Our Home

We moved in on November 22 and have since then discovered something about ourselves. We are terrible at keeping a blog! I had a bunch of photos to put up here and then accidentally deleted them off the camera before they could be saved.

So now we are going to put up some photos that we have been sitting off and will make an effort to get new ones up of rooms as we get them presentable.

We want to say thank you to all of those people who helped us get into this place and a special thank you to grandma and grandpa Collins. Without you this would not have happened.
