We've bought a home!!

We decided it was time we stopped throwing money away with rent and started to put it towards something. We bought a "fixer upper" and hopefully got a good deal :)



The Front View...The house is right against the mountain and we've been told deer come right on down into the backyard! The "menagerie" of a shed...

The view of the Kitchen from the dining room.





Bedroom 1 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 3
These are the bedrooms all on the main floor. . Then in bedroom 3 notice how the floorboards are not connected to anything. From this location you can see right down into our crawlspace. They're supposed to be fixing that this week by jacking up the house and placing some new support beams! Definitely and adventure!



The bathroom. Those are plastic pink tiles. NO SHOWER. That's getting changed too!





The "pole room" notice the large pole running through this room and then another pole running across. I won't waste all your time with photos of upstairs. This space is all unfinished with tons of potential. 3 more bedrooms and a bathroom are all possible up here. The pole was from the furnace which has now been re-routed. It'll soon be gone! The rest of upstairs will have to wait.

Well that's the overview of our house! We hope to make it somewhat livable by January! It's exciting and a wonderful adventure already! We're learning so much!!

You have a house!!!! That is SO exciting! It's cute...well, at least it will be - I can see it's potential. :) And I LOVE that it's right next to the mountain. Are you still in Poki? I can't wait to see it in real life. I'll have to come visit you soon. Congrats!!!
