Here it is, our first home and we love it! It has definitely been a fixer upper but we got a great deal on it. We have had to completely repaint the entire house which was a chalky white/pink color. Our living room has a fun accent wall that is chocolate and the rest of the room is called tobacco road which is a warm neutral. Our dining room is a fine wine (deep red) color and our front room is also tobacco road. It's 2 and half bath and 3 bedrooms. Upstairs we have two full baths and 3 bedrooms. The half bath is down stairs. We closed on September 12th and it happened so fast that I didn't even get the water turned on in our name in time. So we moved in and started camping :) Our first night at three am our ceiling fan light just randomly turned on. Talk about adrenaline rush !! We finally chalked it up to random electrical issues and went back to sleep. T had a business trip the next weekend so it was just me and the kids. 3am rolled around the first night he was gone, I had finally gotten to sleep, when all of a sudden the ceiling fan and light randomly turned on high at the same time...............ahhhhhhhhhh....... Needless to say we got a new ceiling fan :)
All in all the house is coming along and I'll have to post the before and after pictures so you can see the transformation. The fun part about fixing up a house is that you get to watch it become your own!
