Homeowners!

So we are finally homeowners!   It has been SO much fun and we just LOVE our house!  The closing went pretty smoothly. 

We walked in at 12:00...

 and at 1:00 we owned a home!!!

Of course right when we walked in the door there was LOTS of work to do! Both of our parents and Will and Jordan and even Lauren and Richard for a little while came to help!  We needed all the help we could get.  We had (and have) SO much work to do...I can't imagine if we had bought a fixer-upper!

Tiger just loves his new house- especially the backyard! 

This is a view from the kitchen into the living room- still under construction at this point!

We had to install some fans...

still painting...

For the 4th of July we had our first cookout at the house!  As a housewarming gift Matt's dad bought us a grill and a lawnmower!  Matt LOVES them...his first "man machines!"  

So far all the boxes are unpacked, but there is a lot more to do.  There is still more painting, landscaping, buying of all kinds of things, decorating, etc to do!  We will be busy for many weekends to come, but they are all very fun projects :)  I will try to be better about putting pictures up!
