So, I gave up on blogger and went to photobucket to host images.

The front of the new house. It's not as green now as it was then. I'm too cheap to water the grass that often.

Looking from the front door, through the living room to the kitchen.

This is the way the bathroom looked when I purchased it. the shower curtain was dark, there were two yucky storage units, the medicine chest was a cheap laminate item, the towel bar was dirty wood. It is 4 foot wide, ten feet long, and has 9.5/10 feet ceilings- It's like being in the belly of a snake.

Okay, all together now say, "Craft Room." It's going to be such fun. I can barely wait to get all my stuff organized. And I can spill glitter and no one is going to get grumpy. Wooot!!

You can't really tell from this photo, but the back patio area (the lower roof) is large and covered. The backyard itself is large and weed covered. I've got to get the weeds knocked down soon. Since I have a chain link fence in the back the weeds are visisble and this could get me a ticket from the weed patrol if I don't get on with it.

    Love your house CC. Great porch and patio and the inside has great potential. LOL at the belly of the snake analogy. Can't wait to see the bathroom when you are done.

    Weed Patrol? Thank goodness there isn't one of those where we live. Without weeds there would be no green in our lawn. Taking a walk one day and saw a neighbor spraying his yard. Asked what he was doing. Killing weeds. I looked closely and slunk away because I was cultivating those suckers because they covered the dirt and gave some color to the yard. My philosophy: weeds are plants growing where you don't want them. I love wildflowers and let them bloom and seed. My neighbor sprays them with weedkiller. Go figure.

    CC, your house is very cute! I like it.

    A pain moving and getting everything the way you want it, I know, but before you know it will be home sweet home.

    Pretty little house CC. I like the front porch and the patio at back. That backyard is big enough for a Cherry Bomb party. I will bring the dip. Okay, I'll bring the chips too.

    Did you say Colorado? Oh I have never been there. See you tomorrow. /,D

    Seriously adorable home CC. I was having doubts about ever becoming a homeowner, but I'd be proud of that purchase. Beautiful enough to keep you working out the kinks, I'd think.

    Party at your house tomorow? Perfect.

    You're backyard is huuuuge! And the house is adorable. You're working so hard, be sure to give yourself some time for R&R.

    CC, this is gorgeous! I know you see flaws but none of them matter because this is YOUR house and any so-called flaws are things you can deal with and the heck with anyone else!

    I think AD (adopted dog) will love the yard, and the craft room, and your bedroom, and ...
