A House

Howdy. This is our house.

















This is a blog about our house.

Any questions?

Ok, so maybe you do have questions. Why a blog about our house? Well, we're feeling pretty behind the times since we haven't blogged anything before. Not that there's anything wrong with blogging ... we just didn't know what to blog about. So then, on September 23, 2005, we signed a bunch of papers and they gave us this key. Turns out, it goes to this house in Noblesville! Wow, fancy that. The house needs some work to make it all purdy like, so we thought it'd be fun to track the progress via a blog. That way all of you anxious home viewers can catch the play by play, live, as it happens. Well, by "as it happens" I mean whenever we have the time and/or energy and/or interest in updating this thing. You'll wait with baited breath, not able to sleep until you see the final results (hopefully good results) of such exciting projects as: refinishing hardwood floors, painting, building a garage, more painting ... and many many more (as time, energy, and money permits).

So anyway, here are some of the basics about the place:

- built in 1915
- 3 BR, 2 BA
- 1440 SF (not incl. basement)
- built in the traditional "foursquare" style
- situated in "Old Town" Noblesville, just a short walk to the downtown courthouse square (and several nice restaurants, coffee shops, antique stores, etc.)

So, that's how this begins I guess. Stay tuned for the first project, starting soon!

Well, we're off to Lowe's to begin browsing their fine assortment of home stuff. Mmm ... I love the smell of tools and building materials on a cool fall evening.

Oh, and if you ever see a project you are dying to jump in and help with ... feel free ... we are now hiring volunteers in all departments.
