House Proud

Today marks our 1 year anniversary of being homeowners :) It's been a long/short year & we've worked really hard to get our house to where it is today. We started with a blank slate and we're slowly putting our stamp on our house. There will be a million tears shed from me when we leave this house just knowing how much of our blood (yes there has been blood shed), sweat (real shirt soaking sweat), and tears (you try making over every room with a baby and being pregnant) we've put into our 1st house. We've made a ton of sacrifices in order to try to afford to do and buy what we want for our house. It sounds ludicrous but I skip right over the clothing aisles, mosey right past the make up and hair product aisles and go straight to hardware and house things. We are at Home Depot just about every weekend, sometimes multiple times...the paint lady knows us & adores Logan. We order in food or go out to eat maybe once a month and I've started getting good at selling items on Craigslist ;) We're gettin it done.

When we moved in I originally took pictures to help show our friends and family that lived far away our new digs and I'm happy I did cause this past week I've gone back and tried to take pictures from the same angles to show you the changes we've made.

Below are the 2010 vs. 2011 house pics. And then for those who care - this link: House 2011 will take you to an online album with more detailed pictures of our house today, exactly one year since the day we bought it.

Cheers!
