A New House









Matt and I have finally found furniture for our house. This is a great accomplishment considering we have been in countless furniture stores over the last several months. I love the "new do". In addition to the furniture, we had the kitchen tiled. We also did an upgrade by having new windows installed and what a difference this has made. Oh, and I stained the staircase. I feel like I am living in a new house. These things have definitely tapped our budget, so we will probably not make any new changes anytime soon. On our list of things to do to the house are: new cabinets for the kitchen (or update existing ones), new kitchen counter tops, add an addition to the house with master bath and bathroom, remodel existing bathroom, landscape by adding privacy all around the perimeter, and this is just the beginning. We have a long way to go, but the house is completely different from the time Matt bought it until now. Some things that we have already done to the house are: new roof, central heat and air, landscaping, Aquaguard the basement, paint, tear out all carpet and refinish hardwoods, lighting, electrical upgrade, new storm doors, and plumbing upgrade.

Matt's landscaping is still going well, Lucy is great, and I am still at Penske. We are still at West Ridge Church, although we are planning a trip to First Baptist Atlanta tomorrow. I have always wanted to go hear Charles Stanley, so I am super excited. We are planning a trip to see my parents within the next few weeks so I am excited about that as well. My dad just had a birthday and my mom's is right around the corner. I miss Hazlehurst, well at least the people of Hazlehurst.
