Home Sweet Soon

So I sort of left you hanging on the house hunt...  after putting an offer on the third house, they took it.  It is actually around the corner from my apartment now in a older neighborhood.  I enjoy this area because I know it, it is 5 minutes from the school I teach at, there is an awesome park/trails right by me,  it is on the other side of Keller- which is closer to more family and friends, and it is sort of away from the RR tracks and the awful 377 (very congested road that I really dislike).  Because it is older there might be a few unknown things I will have to fix, but that is with every house right?  After the inspection...aka pointing out everything that could possibly wrong about my house... I felt a little...no a lot... stressed, but after a foundation specialist came out, he said it looked great (which made me feel more at ease about my decision).  Lord willing, I will close Aug. 3rd!  I have been so thankful for so many people offering to help- boy am I surround by the best people:)  Here are a few pictures... I wonder what I will do with it... oh the possiblities in being in my OWN home:)


Lots of things I want to do...but I will have to save up!  I like the big tree:)


Where should I put my tv?  Just thought of this...  I like the flooring- the previous owner did a great job with updates.  Paint Fireplace white? Leave mantel brown...  Not my furniture in the picture.


Only ceiling fan in the house- yikes! Washer and dryer is in the dining room door way.  Not sure how long I can handle all the beige walls.


I did not LOVE the stain done on the cabinets...but it is kind of growing on me.


My bedroom.. then you enter the master bath by the window.  There are two other bedrooms, but they look exactly the same as this one- just smaller... the closets are all good sizes.  Sort of want to paint the trim white. 


Guest Bathroom- I like it:)


Mast bathroom... which sink will I use...I might trade out- or just use one that way I do not have to clean so much.

 The backyard.  There is a shed, which I will put one box in I guess.  And a little patio for entertaining:)  Must get a hammock. 

Anyone want to come to my fun painting party??? :)
