New Adventure

I am a bit late posting this but we had some good news on August 17. We officially became home owners! It was quite a process, much more confusion than I thought buying a home should be.
This is definitely not my dream home that I posted about here but it will be fantastic once it's fixed up! In the past few months we had looked at 7 or 8 houses. We have a list of things we were really looking for. Most of the houses had 6 or 7 of the 10 things. This one has 8. We knew we were not going to find one that had everything (the dream house did have 9 of 10!). We are going to have a yard with a huge garden, 2550 sq. (plus an unfinished attic) to fill, a shop and a rec. room.
Here are a few pictures from the listing (these were not taken with our furniture in the rooms!):



We have decided to start a blog about the renovations. It's a 100 year old house so it's going to take a lot of work! I'm sure the projects will never end but we are excited to start this adventure!
Here is the new blog, I'll be posting more updates on the house there than on here most likely!
