We did it!

We finally found our dream home! Well.... by dream home I mean we have big dreams for the place! We found a 4 bedroom 3 bath ranch style home in a very cute little neighborhood! It is the ugly one on the block but we don't mind, we got a great deal because of it! We really were looking for a fixer. There is something so satisfying about turning the undesirable into something attractive. Our camera is at the house with Nick right now so I can't post any pictures but get ready for some lengthy posts!! We got the keys yesterday and already have made about a 200% improvement! That is, with the help of some very loyal and loving family members who aren't afraid of some hard work and unknown filth! (seriously....there is some gross stuff in there)

Pictures to follow soon.
