Our House is a Very Very Very Fine House

Here is our house! We closed last week and move in this Saturday. We LOVE the location. It's still close to downtown, but it's technically outside of town limits. Behind our backyard are orchards, and across the street are more orchards. It's also a dead end rd, so there's very little traffic.

This is the living room.

And the dining room.

The kitchen. Wish it came complete with mom and dad!

Here's the baby's room. The play room is off to the left. The master bedroom is to the right; it looks pretty much the same as the baby room.
A little birdie told us this was Paonia's first Post Office. I'm going to call the historical society to confirm. If it's true, we'll try to restore it and make it cute.

Here's our yard on the side of the house. We have about 1/2 an acre total. Ryan's favorite part is that shed you see on the right. It's completely his domain, and I'm excited for all the things he's going to build for me in it!
We have lots and lots and lots to do, but we're going to take it slowly. Ryan will be working hard while I'm at Girls Camp this week. We hadn't owned the place a full 5 hours before he ripped out a wall. It will take years to do everything we want, but we're excited to do it!

Holly! I am lurking on your blog (late at night at work.) I can't believe you're pregnant and own a house! Way to be an adult! (Unlike me.) Also, You mentioned chickens, and if that means you actually own chickens, I am jealous.

(This is Laura Henderson, by the way.)

AHHH! How exciting. You have so much yard!! I can't wait to see the stuff you do to it. Be sure to post about each of your home improvement projects. Those are really fun to see.
