Finally Home

Well, my family and I finally got our new house! Actually, we moved in back in May but I have been so busy with arranging everything, projects and figuring out where to put stuff that I have not had time to post on here. The house is perfect: 2040 sq ft, 1/2 acre that already had 4 apple trees, 2 pear trees, a peach tree and a what I think is a persimmon tree (either that or a plum tree that produces tiny plums). Plenty of space for a big garden, plenty of room for the kids to run around. The neighbors on either side of us are great! The neighbors on one side, their family originally built the house about 60 years ago and they have been very helpful with information about the house and property.
The house has 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a ton of closets, a mud room/laundry room a decent size dining room and a nice sized living room. The bedrooms are all nice size except for one that is kinda small.
We got lucky in that the inside was freshly remodeled by the seller. He said he took everything down to the studs before remodeling.
So far we love it! We have alot of plans for the place but it will be slow going. Right now we're just happy to have our own piece of dirt and to be out of the apartment.
So there you have it, we finally found our place that we will hopefully be able to turn into a working homestead/tiny farm eventually.
