Our House…

is a very, very, very fine house.
With two cats in the yard,
Life used to be so hard.
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you. La la la la la!

We’re moving!!!!  We made it to a whole year in one place and decided we needed to move again.  Haha…Just Kidding.  We were blessed with a really good job opportunity in Omaha, Nebraska and knew it was time to finish off some of our projects and list this baby.

Here she is in a sweet virtual tour….

I have to say I did not like my house when we moved in.  It was old (ala 1947), had weeds for landscaping, I had barely seen it before we bought it (in fact I hadn’t seen it at all before we made an offer) and it had been sitting empty after a foreclosure for two years. However, I was sold when Jordan told me that we were a block south of the temple and you could see it from my kitchen window.  Done.  Then my awesome husband got a hold of it, fixed it right up and we added a baby, some flowers and a whole lotta love.  Now it’s our bright cheerful spot and I’m in love with our first little Bethlehem.   

Here are some of the things we’ve done:

• Jordan took a load bearing wall out that separated two rooms without a common hallway.  We retextured, painted and had carpet put in and now those two awkward rooms are a second family room!
• New paint throughout 90% of the home.
• Lots of new carpet
• J put in a second bathroom
• Improved old drywall in many rooms
• New porch banister
• Veggie Garden!
• Dug a well
• Revived the grass, planted a little bit of new sod, and put in new flower beds (my project of choice)
• Furnishing and decorating it since we moved in with one bed and one table to our names
• Plus all the other little miscellaneous items that come with fixing up a fixer upper

There’s things we would have liked to do had we lived there longer, but someone else can enjoy doing a couple things just how they want to. So, take a looksie and let us know if you know of anyone looking for a cute little house in a great neighborhood!
