We are still alive

We have been a little unavailable the last couple weeks. We closed on our house on Sept 17th and it has been keeping us busy. We are updating the kitchen on our own and it has been quite the project; there will be some impressive before and after pictures in the next couple weeks. We just got our internet connection up today and wow am I internet dependent it is SOOO hard to live without. Here is the new place. Now I am off to take down more wallpaper.

How fun to have your own home!! It looks very nice. It looks like it has a pretty big yard. Mowing it will be fun. I am sure Wyatt will want to help. Congratulations!

Wow! It must be nice to have a place of your own. Especially with such a big yard for the kids to play in. Can't wait to see the before and after pics.

I don't know if I've seen pictures before, or if you just described it really well, but this is exactly how I imagined it. Can't wait to come see it for myself! Congratulations, Shamos!

Good luck on your wallpaper. Luckily when we moved in to our house- there wasn't any- just tons of hideous paint choices. Congrats on closing- it's so much fun to actually have something that is yours. I'm excited to see the "after" pictures!

Janae, Rick, and Wyatt,

We are so excited to see your new house. This pictures give a differnt view than in the past and we are impressed with the green lawn and lovely setting. Congratulations

P.S. I hope you will leave some work for when we are able to come. I am a professional painter.

I love your house. It's darling. You guys are amazing to do the kitchen yourselves. We can only paint and do yard work.

Christine said...

Keep up the good work on the house. I can not wait to see what you do inside!

Courtney said...

Congrats on the house! Remodeling is no fun though, we've been living in a partially torn apart house for over 3 months now and I have to admit it drives me insane! Thankfully we have a basement apartment where I can escape from the craziness. Good luck with everything and I can't wait to see the pictures!

How fun!! It looks so inviting! Can't wait to see the pictures!

I was looking at your anniversary blog and realized we were with you on year three when you went to celebrate and we met for BOBOs (is that what they are called?) first and later you told me you had found out that day you were pregnant!
