Welcome Home!

Well, for those of you who don't know, Katie and I are now homeowners! We found a great house in a neighborhood not too far away from where we were renting. We moved in a couple weeks ago, and have been busy making it our own. We moved ourselves with the help of our friend, Nate. It was a lot of hard work, but we were successful.
The new house!
The living room

The kitchen...tile countertops suck to clean, fyi

We lucked out with a pretty nice deck, two levels, and a nice backyard for Bruno!

The Big Move and Painting

Nate and I unloading the U-Haul...4 trips later and we were done. Movers definately earn their money! The interior needs a little help, most of which is a fresh coat of paint. So far, we have most of the interior painted, and we have some remodeling on the docket as well. I have been pretty busy at work, so I can't lay claim to too much of the painting; Katie has been doing a great job!

Whoa! Painting the ceilings got a little messy :)

Dining room before... Dining room after (imagine the chair rail is installed)

Living Room
We also decided the pink in the guest bedroom had to go. I don't have a full "before" picture handy, but this one shows the difference.

"After"

As you can tell, things have been a little crazy around here, so we'll try to keep you all updated with pictures, but be patient with us :). We will be sending out an email with our new address soon, too.

Congrats you two! New homes are fun (but yes, a LOT of work!)
