Our House

 I started this blog a year ago and haven't done anything with it!  That's about to change.  It was a combination of fear and being busy that kept me from posting, but honestly with the number of blogs I read I really should have my own!

Our house was built in 1922 and we've been living here for almost a year.  Here are some iPhone photos of our little house.


 ^^This was taken before we bought the house.  One of the first things we did was take out that giant bush.
 
 

 ^^ Our back patio (and Maverick).
 
 ^^ We have a hammock in our backyard!  Perfect for naps and reading.
 
 ^^ Our tiny living room when we first moved in.  We've painted the living room since this was taken.

 ^^Bed head!
 
 ^^ I love how our house looks in the snow.  So adorable!
 

 ^^ Steven was going to build bookshelves for me for Christmas.  When he pulled up the carpet, we found wood floors! 
 
 ^^ We chose to sand and stain the wood floors instead of building the bookshelves.  We spent the week between Christmas and New Year's working on the floor in our bedroom.

 ^^ The floors in our bedroom!
 


 ^^ We moved in in July and so I didn't know what color the irises were.  I was so excited when I found out this spring that they are white!
 

 ^^ We added a new member to our family.  Charlie was living under our house until we adopted him.  As you can see, he's kind of a mess.
