And the Rest!

Here's some more pictures of the house.....

New lamps from a lady at church in the huge living room!

I'm using our new vacuum. Its not really new, but the whole time we lived in Chicago we didn't get to use it much because the apartment was small and all hardwood floors. It works pretty great if I do say so myself. And the carpet in this room is pretty good so we are keeping it. Did I mention this room is huge? And has awesome windows.

I heart Vacuuming!!!!
This is going to be the guest bedroom someday. Please not that the washing and dryer are currently occupying this space. We don't know why you would put them in probably the largest bedroom in the house, but hey, to each their own.

Bathroom - Its black and blue and now very clean. There is no shower in the bathroom just a tub. Another project for someday.

Hi Momma. I'm alive and well :)

This ones for you Daddy - Just wanted to let you know I'm useful. I changed the toilet seat the first night we were in the house!!! And I was wearing really stylish gloves.This is the room we are going to be using as our bedroom. So I guess you could call it the master. Ha.

And there you have it. Our humble abode. Come Visit!!!

Welcome to my Kitchen

The Kitchen is to your right as you walk into the house. The dining room is to the left. And there are two walls between them - or there was yesterday. Today there is just some wall studs. We decided to take those walls out to open the kitchen/dining room up. Here's a little tour.....

That's Joe-Joe in the kitchen. The cupboards were all built into the house. I think I might want to paint them, but they all are in good shape. Please note the window seat in the middle of the countertop. And the nice clean fridge on the right :)Here's the kitchen from the inside. The wall Joe is leaning against is gone now. Someday soon there will be an island in the middle, but that might have to wait until another day.
Another shot of Joe Joe. He likes to be in all the pictures. Note the awful carpet.
Twanda!!!Wall in the dining room. Again Joe Joe likes to be in the pictures :)
Cutting the wall down in the dining room.

Now looking down the hallway. Walls missing. Now all there is to do is move a gas line, move some electrical, build some temporary support walls, tear down these walls, and put in a header.

Jonathan in the Kitchen - from the dining room. Already the whole place looks brighter.

Jonathan is a good sweeper and that's is one clean fridge!

Welcome Home Seger Family!

We got the house! We got the house! And we now have a lot to do to it. And a lot of pictures to show you. So I am going to break them up into several posts.

Here is our side door, which if you know us this is where you come in - so this is the door you will use :)Door bell! I doesn't work - yet.

Life Happens

Well I haven't written a word in two weeks. Life Happens. Here's an update on what we have been up to.

• Joe ran a mini-tri today. He finished in the top third out of everyone. I am very proud of him, especially because he trained very little beforehand. Jonathan, Michael and Dane also ran it - Jonathan even did the marathon distance!
• We were supposed to get the house today/yesterday but they are still working on getting it cleaned out. The man who owned it called and he thinks they should be out by Wednesday, Friday at the latest. And it has to be by Saturday because that's what our contract says.
• I've been canning, thanks to my new pressure cooker and the Ball Book of Canning.

Nothing else to report. Its hot again in Indiana. 90's the last couple of days. Oh well, at least it wasn't like this all July.
