After 10 long years of trying to do something with our house to replace it (the current house is an improved mobile home) or buy another house (we had 2 bought out from under us) and trying to buy the house next door after it foreclosed twice, today is CLOSING DAY!
We were successful in buying the house directly next door and will be able to combine the two properties to use as one. We are soooo excited to have the chance to turn this house into our own dream. To be able to spread out and entertain larger crowds again.
To put our stamp on every corner of this new place. To put all of the things we found out weren't worth investing in our current house into this new house. To have the kids each have their own rooms to spread out and personalize and enjoy.
Soooo much work to come - although it has great bones to start with. A lot of paint, some flooring, cleanup and organizing spaces. Certainly lots of blogging material and before/afters here!
Congratulations! I can't wait to see what you do with it!
