It’s Official

It’s official…we are homeowners! Jon and I signed all of the paperwork today! It was like signing our life away. But we are so excited to start this part of our lives. After all of the paperwork was done we went over to the house to take some “before” pictures. Want to go on a tour of the first floor? Here we go.Our house!

View from the front door. If you walk straight you will pass a coat closet, a half bathroom, and then end up in the laundry room. If you go right you will be in the living room.

Staircase to the left.

Half bathroom down the hall to the right.

Living room to the right. The windows here look out to the front yard. Where the light is glowing on the right is where the front door is. Make sense?

Dining area off of the living room.

View of the kitchen from the dining area.

This is the mud room area and laundry room off of the kitchen. This area is also straight across from the front door. That bench opens for storage…it is one of my favorite parts of the house!

Family room off of the kitchen/hallway.

View of the kitchen from the family room. To the right is the garage and also the door to the basement.

So that was the first floor. Was it confusing? Are you completely turned around? I hope not. I can’t wait to share some more pics soon. We will be cleaning all day Saturday…wish us luck!
