My amazing Friend Diana at Diana Rambles has this amazing FFFF that run each week from Friday to Thursday. Yes I know I'm pushing it but I always have so much to post at the start of each week! Ok so here it is Home Sweet Home. We were one of the lucky ones that bought when the housing market was good before it went crazy and ballooned. I also stuck to my guns about buying a bank repo that needed to be fixed up for our first house. Rick of course wasn't keen on this idea but he came around, yes he had to do most of the work with my dad. Stop rolling your eyes (@@) I was 6 months pregnant :). So girls here is our little fixer up, mind you Rick tore down the deck on the side last weekend, no updated pictures yet. Plus it looks icky now with the weather, but his is after we landscaped. We've put in all new carpet and wood floors, painted the whole house (plus patched all the wholes those people loved molly screws). New appliances and also the bathroom (you'll see pictures below of that). Welcome to my house :).
Before Front yard.
Chain link Fence and ugly tree and shrubs
New grass, split rail fence, 10 YARDS of top soil, new bark and new plants!
Plus the new door but that was from the stupid kid that broke into my house and busted it! Another story!!
Back yard before, Yikes huh?
Back yard new plants, new sod, new tree and a grape harbor on the side
Bathroom before. The toilet leaked and we found that the floor was not floor but sheet rock!! Yup you heard me right! Had to rip it all out and start new.
New bathroom, tile floors, new vanity, new toilet, new shower insert. That had to go in thru the wall, so I also got new siding on that side of the house :).
