It's official....we are now the proud owners of Alabama real estate! We bought a house here in T-town (actually, just 4.6 miles from the house we were renting). July will be the one year mark of our move down here (I can't believe it) but it was just the right amount of time to get to know the city and neighborhoods. From start to finish, the whole home-buying process took about 6 weeks. The first day we looked at houses we drove by this one and asked our agent to show it to us...we fell in love as soon as we stepped out of the car and saw the Gerber daisies (and the back patio). Once inside the amazing kitchen and roominess of the house sold us! We could see our future in this home and couldn't wait to move in. With the 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and ample storage (even a basement) we were anxious to move in and spread out. We closed on May 1st (did a little painting) and moved in on May 7th. Grandma W came to help with the kids while Dr. M and I packed and unpacked. The neighbors have been so warm and welcoming, stopping to chat and bringing us dinner and homemade bread. We're enjoying being home owners again and have already enjoyed some renovation projects (which we love). We look forward to many happy years in this home.
FRONT - it's much bigger than it looks!
BACK - the patio is ah-mazing (though this isn't the best pic of it)
The Gerber Daisies - gone now because E picked them all for me for Mother's Day :)
The beautiful kitchen (renovated a year ago)
In the backyard (eek!) - Not sure what kid of snake this is but he was at least 3 feet long. Just to be safe we caught him and released him at a nearby park.
Stewdog is LOVING the new house!
