Photos of Home

Although we STILL don't have internet access at home, we've managed to post some photos from work.  Here are a few we've taken over the past two weeks of new home ownership!


We've already had one picnic with friends on the Salem Common and have spent many days & early evenings out there.  The common is a 30 second walk from our home and can be seen from our dining room window.  As our friend Jimmy said, it's like a huge back yard we don't have to mow!


You can see our building in the background (it's the brick one in the middle).


Upstairs lounge where the office and tv are also located.


Entrance leading into the dining room area (you can see a poster from our friend Daniel's band, Ill Lit, and you can see my friend Eric's painting in the background).


New, comfy, awesome bed. 


Will installed some shelves in the kitchen.  He's amazing with power tools.


One view of our dining room with our very solid dining table.  The bench arrives in August.



Another view of our dining room (with a little extra sitting area).  

More photos to come!

HOME!

We have finally moved into our new home!


It's been a while since I've blogged because I figured no one wanted to hear about how painful and exhausting the loan process with Bank of America was.  But that's behind us now, as are the 7 months of working towards our goal, the 3 Purchase & Sale agreements, 3 inspections, 3 appraisals, etc.  We have our 1 beautiful home.  Photos will be posted when we upload them and get our internet fully functioning!
