Our new home photos




After many a week, I am finally getting around to post photos of our new home.

Thanks to Jackie's handy camera, I am able to showcase our new house. Because after all, why would I, the buyer of the house, bring my own digital camera to the inspection? Actually, I think I did, but was too shy to take pictures. Luckily, Jackie has been our surrogate realtor and has been doing everything from arguing with our real realtor to inspection pointers to mortgage pointers. She just wants to make sure we don't get screwed. And, because we have ZERO idea of what is going on, she's been a big help.

When everything settles down, I'll tell you what a 5/1 ARM is. But for now, I'm told it's something to stay away from.

On to the house:



As you enter the house, you be in the old porch, which is now a year-round sun room. They say it's comfortable 9 months of the year. I don't know which months are the ones it's just too unbearable.




Take two steps and you'll enter the living room. Note the working fireplace and stairs to take you up to the second floor.

This is where many of our friends and family will hang when they come to visit.



Several more steps will take you to our dining room. There are big windows to let a lot of sun in.

That's all I have on that room. We'll eat there.

Even further back is the kitchen (photos not available) and then to the tiniest bathroom ever.

Actually, Becky tells me they call it a powder room.

I guess that's where that kid Powder lives. I just know I'll never be able to poop there.



But when you head upstairs, you'll see there is a bathroom that will be just fine ...



It also has a big mirror for Becky to put on makeup.

I don't need a mirror for my makeup.



Ands this is the upstairs hallway. Bedroom in the back of the house (not pictured) and bedroom in the front. Bathroom on left and an office door just before that (again, not pictured).



The outside of the house has this walkway to the backyard (also accessible from the kitchen powder room area).


There is always a basement where all my stuff will eventually live.

Other than that, it's pretty swanky and we're excited. Settlement date is (hopefully) July 29.

We expect visitors.
