We bought our house almost 5 years ago with grand intentions. It's a 19th C. Federal/Greek Revival house in Harpers Ferry, WV. 4 1/2 years and two kids later (we got here with 2, now we have 4) we've repaired some siding and painted the house from red to yellow. The latter happened just months ago. Now, as we enter the second half of our first decade here, we are going for the interior. Apart from a couple of quick paint jobs and new knobs, it's pretty much what it was. No new light fixtures, no central air, no new flooring, same-old cabinets and ugly flooring in the kitchen. 4 1/2 years and two kids later, we're ready to make our house into OUR home.
Thanks Mom.
