OUR HOUSE!!!!!

So....we're getting a house!!!!! We haven't moved in yet, but we should be able to in 30 days or less!!!!

House specs: 2796 square feet; 17,820 square foot land (.41 acres! horses are permitted!); 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. It isn't much farther from where we live right now - close to the freeways, only like, 5 minutes from the strip and airport.

The house definitely needs some updating. It sat on the market for a little more than a year, so the yard is completely dead. The outside needs to be painted and we plan on redoing the whole master bath (it's not that great). Also, we want to attach the garage to the house (right now it's detached). It has a pool (which needs to be cleaned), needs new carpet (pink and purple just aren't the colors of carpet I like) and a  lot of new paint - the bedrooms have pretty horrid paint jobs, and has a lot of land!

 Here are a couple of pictures from the internet that the realtor took. The furniture inside isn't ours.

 These first two pictures are the outside of the house. The front door, something Dave and I couldn't find in the pictures until we actually went to the house, is behind the big tree on the left.

This is a patio that's on the front of the house. Above it is a balcony from the master bedroom.

Here is the garage (detached). We plan on making like, a mudroom/hallway to connect it to the rest of the house. Where you see the firepit is where the backdoor is on the house.

Spanning to the right of the yard, you see the POOL!!! I like how it's already gated (so the little ones don't have access), and it comes complete with a slide! haha. It also has a small hot tub that waterfalls into the pool.

Here is a closer look at the pool.

When you first walk into the house, this is what you see, the family room. The staircase leads to the master bedroom and bath (the only room upstairs). Down the hallway are 2 more bedrooms off to the left side of the hall. The other side is the door to the patio. I'm hoping the bedrooms downstairs don't entice our future kids to sneak out at night! We'll have to do something to change that.

You can also see the dining table off to the left. The next picture shows looking the other direction in the house.

So, here's the kitchen! It's really nice and big. We plan on installing an island in the center (in this pic, the owners had a removable island in the kitchen). Down the hall you can see the office/gameroom/maybe extra bedroom. Pictures of that room is later on.

So, here's my pretty kitchen! It's a really good size, which I'm glad about.

Here's the office/gameroom/extra bedroom. It had a fireplace and is a very big room! It has a bathroom/laundry room around the corner, also. When we attach the garage, I plan on moving the laundry room to there! It's just kinda weird to me to share the laundry room with a toilet!

Here's panning to the right in the same room.

Here's the master bedroom! As you can see, it is big enough for a bed and a little sitting area. I don't know what we'll do with all the space!

So that's our house! Yay! It needs some work, but we plan on living here for a while and can't wait for the excitement of making it better and better!!! Everyone is more than welcome to come stay with us!!! We have at least one spare room we won't be using! (That's not a pregnant announcement, just that we'll prob use the other bedroom for an office, haha).

Also, you can look on Zillow.com to see the overhead look of the house and at how big the lot really is!
