Here are some pics/updates on what has happened at "the Home Front"

The pool is done...except now the pump and filter are going out but they are under warranty!



there was a small crack in the cement that we had to patch before we put in the floor...Jessi's first attempt with a caulk gun. And she did pretty well!









We got the flooring put into the kitchen and it looks pretty good. The laminate is definitely the way to go for a beginning flooring project. It was a pain in the butt to get started, but once the first three rows were done it went really quick and smooth!



I bought a tablesaw and still have all 10 of my fingers!

Backyard and view!

So here is one of the major selling points for us. There is no back neighbor! Well, unless you count the rich people on the top of the hill! But they will almost never run in the same circles as us, so who cares if they can see in!
And when you climb the hill you get the chance to look at this great view!

As it was

So here are a few pictures of the house as it was when we very first moved in. The first couple of nights were spent on an air mattress which is appropriate, I think, as that is how we started our married life together in our England Home!Looks pretty good until you notice that the carpet is long and shaggy and green. And now for the close up...
the pool was a little green too, but we got some industrial strength cleaner and took care of that!
