 We absolutely LOVE IT!

Justin and I closed on our first house on February 14th (Happy Valentines Day to us!)
We loved it from the very first time we saw it.
It's located in a very quiet neighborhood in Lincoln, and it has a back yard!
None of this hallway backyard stuff, like a for real back yard. 
2 Cherry Trees
1 Plum Tree
1 Grapefruit Tree
1 Fig Tree (anyone like figs?)
1 Apple Tree,
1 Peach Tree
1 Nectarine Tree
1 Grapefruit Tree
and 
1 Tree that we don't know what it does yet
AND GRASS! 

Oh! and Pumpkins! and Artichokes, and Strawberries!

It's like Christmas every day!
We might have our hands full with the upkeep. 
Justin's been on it though. 

Before we moved in we ripped out carpet, baseboards, and linoleum downstairs, painted it a lovely shade of Creamy Mushroom, and painted the ceiling and new 5" baseboards white.

We then had Home Depot install new carpet.
My dad installed beautiful Wood Laminate flooring.
Put in new appliances (fridge, washer, dryer)
And we were in!

Closed in February, and were in by mid April.

We've just loved living there!
We've had a few mishaps (ceiling leaking from master shower, and sprinklers breaking), 
but it's been SO GREAT to have our own home. 

It's a perfect place to call ours and start a family!
