Neighbors

Eric and I were in our new neighborhood and saw this little bunny in someone's yard. Isn't he cute?









Here's a little bird that has made a home in our gutter. Of course he contributes on the rent and helps pay for cable. At least that's the agreement until he moves out.

This is a picture of the sun setting and the view from our apartment is amazing!

We Own the House

So, we closed on the house. HOO-RAY!!!! The sellers haven't quite moved out yet. BOO-HOO!!!
It has been a pretty stressful day. Eric and I got to the house this afternoon for a walk through and saw that there was a lot of stuff left in it. We weren't happy about it. It wasn't just a little bit of stuff, there were a bunch of things in closets and kitchen stuff. I couldn't believe it! Most of the time when you close on a house the sellers are out and everything is peachy, but not in our case. They were planning on moving the rest tomorrow and cleaning. I DON'T THINK SO!!!! So anyway, we got it somewhat taken care of. We have a key, they are still packing as I type, AND they have to come by tomorrow to get things out of the garage!!!! Crazy! They acted like this was the norm but I'm sorry, when you have several weeks to pack up and move out, there shouldn't be anything left in the house. DUH!
Well, enough venting for tonight. It has been an exhausting day. We have to rest up because we are getting up early in the morning to get started on our painting party. I can't wait!

House Closing

It looks like Eric and I are gonna close on the house tomorrow, Friday the 13th. I'm not really into superstition but I hope that means good luck. We are both really excited. We have had a few bumps in the road getting to this point but we are almost there. We plan on going over to the house tomorrow evening to get pictures and start destroying the kitchen. That will be the most fun. The kitchen needs A LOT of work. We'll also start painting on Saturday. I already have most of the paint colors picked out. We definitely have a big job ahead of us but it will be worth it in the end. It's gonna be beautiful!!! I hope to post some pictures tomorrow. Until then, I do have some pics of the kitchen at http://remery2.photosite.com/
