HOUSE!!!

So, for Christmas this year Russ gave me a house . . . meaning the go-ahead to start looking for a house. And last week we found one! Four bed, two bath, quiet cul-de-sac, big backyard, walking distance from the elementary, biking distance from Russ's office - PERFECT. We saw it on Thursday, made an offer on Friday, and the offer was accepted on Saturday. Awesome!

We were there yesterday for the inspections, so I took a few pictures (mostly for my Mom, who has been begging and begging for them). Here's the whole collection - I'm too lazy to decide which ones to keep and which ones to delete.

Formal Dining Room
(we're planning to use this space for the piano and a computer desk)

Master Bathroom

  7. Just beautiful! I don't think I mentioned it before, but I love the chandelier/ceiling in the dining room. And that master bath looks so nice. What will you do with all that space? :) What a great Christmas present--way to go Russ!
