Making Progress

As many of you know, John and I are trying to purchase the house I grew up in. This has been a dream of mine for about 10 years. It has been currently taken off the market, not sold, for reasons unknown, this could work in our favor though. The only way we can buy my old house is to sell ours, like last week, but our tiny bungalow isn't exactly move-in-ready.

We have made big progress. John and his buddy Justin have been putting up bead board in our second bedroom, I'll post pictures once we get it painted. Cindy helped me get started painting the trim white in the nook, it was hideous, our whole house (trim & walls) was a dirty-off-white-kinda-yellow color, grose. Uncle Tris helped me paint the trim in the hallway and cut in the paint on the walls. Then I painted the kitchen nook and hallway this fine shade of Avocado California green. I love it! I wanted something neutral to prospective home buyers but something I could live with just in case. It looks great with our bamboo blinds too.




We have been packing, storing, and taking loads to good will. Either way, whether we get the other house or not, we are happy with finally getting our current home the way we have always wanted it.

Sometimes, most of the time, Team Junger just needs a good kickin :)
