We're Moving! (hopefully)

Since we are finally finished our renovations/six weeks of painting, we have put our house on the market! Even though the market is slower than it was 8-9 months ago, we hope our new paint and updates such as flooring and lighting will help us move the house quickly. Out realtors are a sister team named Amber and Rainy (hippy parents anyone!?!?) who seem to be very motivated and whom we work well with thankfully because Logan decided to eat the heel off of one of Ambers shoes the day we all met. We are looking to move to a slightly bigger house, so the kids can have their own bedrooms, and we can have more space in the kitchen and living room. Here's a shot of us putting up the sign today!

More Home Improvements

We've lived on Marathon Lane for about 1.5 years, and we keep saying that we will "get around" to fixing things up. We have accomplished a lot: turning a carport into a garage, tearing up deer fences, re-building the garden and fence, changing the gardens around, putting in a new tub and surround, filled in a huge hole in our patio, upgraded all the windows..... but we decided that now it was time to start working on the inside.

Over the last 6 weeks we have layed new flooring in the kitchen and bathrooms, nothing crazy right now, just something to cover up the ugly orange, yellow and gold from 1982. We also have painted the entire interior of the house including all of the trim (everything was yellow). We used "stone effects" to inexpensively change the counter top. We also pulled down the old monstrosity in the backyard down. Man! That was a safety hazard! Enjoy the photos.
