At the end of April, Blake and I sold our first home and bought a new house. It was bittersweet walking away from our old house for the last time; it was our first home and where we brought Sydney home from the hospital. We also had wonderful neighbors we left behind. That being said, we had outgrown our little house, so we moved a whopping 1 mile down the road, into the neighborhood connected to our old one.
While we love our new home, especially all the extra space, it definitely needed some work (and still does in some regards). Right off the bat (and some even before we moved in) we put in new carpet, painted some rooms, and had a fence put in the backyard. Blake and his dad have also logged m.a.n.y. hours in the yard trimming trees, killing weeds, manicuring shrubs, cutting down trees, you name it, they've done it.
We have enjoyed spreading out in the larger rooms, and Sydney took immediately to the huge bonus room. Silly as it is, I have enjoyed the new kitchen island for cooking and being able to park in a garage. We still have more to do, but for now, we are settled! I took some "before" pictures and now I need to take some "afters" and will post as soon as I do!
