We're Home Owners!

Yes, that's right Lucas and I just bought our first home in Moyie Springs, ID. We signed papers on Thursday and thus began a very long and busy weekend working on the house. Lucas starts the new position as the Bonners Ferry Conservation Office for IDFG (the same position He's had here in Powell)! So we have a long road to haul with fixing up the home, but we look forward to all the possibilities. So here's what we've done so far...

Before



Original for '76

How's this for a color combo?

The dirt just from the living room! 

Now, isn't this nice carpet padding?

Removal by shove...inch by inch. It took us 4+ hours to remove it from two rooms.


After painting all day on Saturday a nice beer and a beautiful view from our backyard! 

... so here's the after so far and so much more to come 
(we haven't even started on the basement yet)!


 Happy home owners! We're looking forward to all that God has in-store for us and how we can serve Him in this next chapter of our lives.
