We bought a HOUSE!!!!

We bought a house in Smoky Ridge - near Smoky Hill and Himalaya. It is what Josiah refers to as the "Blue House". It is 2500 sf on the main two levels and 1000 sf in the basement. 4 bedrooms, 3 baths. The house was built in 1993. We are not going to move in to it right away as we feel it needs some work done to it. Mainly updating. Before we move in at the end of May we are going to get new carpet in the entire house, paint the entire house, gut the kitchen and get all new stuff, change out the back door, and re-do the 3/4 bath on the main level. Below are some pictures of the house - I will update the blog with during and after pictures of the remodel. We are very excited and plan to live here for at least the next 10 years. Our neighbors have all already introduced themselves - very welcoming neighborhood so far - makes me very happy!!!!

Entrance

We love the layout!!

Kitchen and Eat-in area - as you can see the floors
need refinished and the kitchen is just "old"

Everything is coming out!!!

It is a nice sized kitchen!

We will get a new backdoor as well!!

Family room

We bought the house on Friday April 22nd. That night we started tearing out the carpet and kitchen. Josiah was a big help to Daddy.
