Home Inspection Day!

Today we had our home inspection. It was a marvelous event. I showed up late because I didn't want to be bothered with the basement stuff and outside stuff. I did go to get a better feel for this place we just purchased and take some pictures - pictures of what it really looks like and not just the fancy schmancy ones they put up to sell the place!
Here is Ben at the foot of the stairs. The carpet here is a pinkish color. It is such a fluffy, fun carpet.

This is the front room or living room. Pretty standard.

This is James in the kitchen from the front entry way. We love the wood paneling look and wall paper. The kitchen is my favorite room. We think it was remodeled in 1983.

James and Mr. Inspector noting some plumbing discrepancies. Look at all the chemicals they have!


The "dining room" which they use as a living room. This is a pretty big room. I want to use it as a living room too but the husband does not agree with me.


The back entry way and pantry of sorts. Look at all the stuff they have! It's like they are packing away for the blizzard or something. I love it.

Front bedroom. Not the biggest bedroom but we'll probably use this as our bedroom. I think it's current use is a knitting room. There are a lot of sewing things in there. And a very bright overhead florescent light. We'll have to change that.


Ben being like his mother - nosy. This is the master bedroom but will probably be the boys' room.


Another view of the big bedroom.


The third bedroom. This will look huge once all the stuff is out!


Another view of bedroom #3.

And yet another view!! And I thought my mother had lots of stuff!


Upstairs bathroom that was redone recently. It's nice. I like it.


Me being stupid in the new house.


Walk way to new attic...and more stuff.


Another view of the attic...and more stuff.



Ben is still being nosy.

James and Miss Real Estate Agent looking at the AC - which is staying! WooHoo!!!!


I love wall paper!!


Downstairs bathroom - circa 1983.


For some reason, I love this bathroom.

Open Houses!

We went to an Open House today! We love the house and thinking of putting an offer in! Funny thing is James was suppose to be in class today but they kicked him out for being a minute late! Yey!
