Moving Day!

We decided awhile ago to move on to our next (and final) home so we listed our house with an real estate agent in April - it sold in June and we closed last week. We had to move a little earlier because Ryan has been out of town. We are excited - but also kind of sad. We really loved our home in Perry and put an amazing amount of time into fixing it up. Here is a before picture of our home - you can see that we added the garage and the roof over the porch - and redid all the exterior siding and the front door (not to mention all the stuff we did inside!!)
Here is what it looked like when we sold it. You can't see it too well - but I loved my front door that Ryan built - it was knotty alder with v-groove panels and six little windows across the top.
And this is where we are now. We love this home and where it is - it is the farmhouse on Ryan's parents farm - the home that Ryan's dad grew up in. We are going to be doing some extensive remodeling and I'll keep you updated on that as we go - for now we have installed a couple new windows in the front and cut some sheetrock in the kitchen (we had to buy a new fridge and it didn't fit....let the remodeling begin...)

oooo....I love that door too. You should make another one. I haven't seen your old house with all the remodeling but the outside is amazing.

I am still sad that you moved. It just isn't the same without you! Ryan did do an amazing job on that house! Good luck with the new remodeling!
