We have owned our home for about 4 months now and we have definitely had our ups and downs. The first week we moved in, we encountered a plumbing issue. Nothing too major, but possibly a big deal down the road. Those beautiful mature trees in our front yard? Well, apparently roots and pipes don't mix well. It shook us up a bit, but we put it behind us and forged ahead . . . painting, carpeting, painting some more, hanging window treatments, painting even more . . .
Then the heat wave hit and our AC unit decides to break. Three times! We are really hoping our warranty might just replace it. Here's to hoping, right? And a few days ago we discovered our front lawn wasn't dying because of the 100+ degree weather. Our front sprinkler system had broken and it hadn't been watered in almost a week. Yikes!
In spite of these little joys of home ownership [insert eye roll here], we have had a blast making it our own. Our last summer project was re-facing all the bathroom and hallway cabinets and I'm quite pleased with how they turned out. In fact, I'm pretty proud! Hence, the posting of pictures =)
Still happy home owners though!
