the one with 'closing' weekend

So I'm a homeowner now!

This is the long awaited post with my new place... the 'before' pictures of
move-in weekend. Hello! I'd love to give you the nickel-tour, follow me!


We're sitting in the hallway, looking into the living room...

looking from the dining room into the living room and kitchen
(notice the pink on the wall in the background)


front door (far left), stairs and 1/2 bath
- hall, living room and kitchen are to the right

1/2 (mint green) upstairs bathroom

my (yes, purple) bedroom - BEFORE I got my hands on it!

Before you paint, take in baseball with friends and family, right?

Janelle and Erin met me, Mom and Bon at a Redhawks game
to celebrate closing on my house before the painting, moving and cleaning began...

at Bon & DJ's place mixing 42lbs of paint to make 1 of 2 living room colors

the 'after' picture are to come...
