This past November we did a family photo-op with a professional photographer, and here is a little slide show of the day!

Sheesh.

Wow! It has been a very long time since I have last posted anything on here! I guess I will just post a basic update, to get you up to speed with what's going on. We did end up getting the house, and it has been such a blast to turn it into a home. Slowly but surely I am adding pizazz to the place to really represent who PJ and I are. I will hopefully get some pictures up of it soon. I keep telling myself that as soon as the house is clean from stem to stern I will do this, but it is a much harder task than it sounds! The inside is looking really great. We've added paint and decoration to the main living area, which is the living and dining room. Next up is the kitchen once we get our tax return! A new stove and dishwasher are in the works, and I would like to either resurface or replace the cabinet doors. And finally add a little more paint and deco. Currently I am working on clearing our back yard and front yard to prepare for planting. It will be a fresh palette basically, as most of the pre-existing landscaping had died by the time we moved in. Another challenge with this, however, is the new member of our family. Avery is an adorable two year old pit bull-boston terrier mix that we adopted at the end of last year. She is full of energy and likes to chew on things. I planted an agave plant in the backyard, only to have her chew it and dig it up! So now I will have to come up with some kind of a deterrent. Other than that I'm just keeping busy with school and work! Will try to post again soon!

What's new

So, we had our offer accepted and are deep in the process of making things happen. We are working on having our loan finalized, and have gotten the inspection done on the home. There are several things that need work, and we are currently waiting to hear back from the seller to see if they will fix the things that we have asked them too. Other than that not much else is new right now. More news hopefully soon...especially since our closing date is suppose to be on the 22nd!!!
