The American Dream

                                         And there it is.

We still believe in the American Dream. Both Darlene and I have owned a house before, but for both of us this feels like our first time. We have been looking forward to this for a few years now. Our hard work is paying off and we will have our own place again.

The kids will no longer be sharing a room and we will have plenty of room for our families and friends to visit us.

Our closing date is next week. The house needs a bit of work. It is dirty and needs a little bit of new paint, but we are excited to start working on it.

My goal is to use this blog as a way of sharing our adventures. To show before and after photos on our work and possibly some videos to go along with them.

I am also looking forward to getting done with the semester so that I have more time to do work on the house.  We plan on doing most of the work on the back bedroom the first/second weekend in January, when I am on winter break.  And then the plan is to work on the bathroom over spring break.
