Overhaul begins!

When we bought this place we knew the front yard would need a lot of love as the house sat empty for at least a year. We have been trying to get the inside taking care of and decided that we would wait til we got most of it done before we would start outside. The yard was weed central and the flower beds looked like something out of a horror movie. Our first project was the yard. We have managed to kill all the weeds and are now working on getting the grass green. I truly love owning our own home but my project list has never been longer.  This morning I decided to start what will be a very long project.... the flower beds! I will be posting pictures through out this process. Also I will be getting some pictures of the inside of the house posted as well. It still has a long way to go but thankfully it is ours and we can take our time!!

First payment!

Its really official! We made our first payment on the house and it felt wonderful.

The house is coming along. We have most of the rooms painted and decorated. We have a few small touch ups here and there. We truly love this house. It is so perfect for us! It has been so much fun getting it in order.

School is almost over and then it will be summer! I really hope summer drags a little cause I am not ready for all of them to be in school all day. I enjoy my children and love having them home with me. It will be a fun summer filled with great things and maybe even a short trip to see an old friend!

Happy May!
