Our Home! (Condo)

We purchased a condo in Bountiful, UT in October of 2007. It was built in the early to mid 80's. The biggest thing we changed/updated before moving in was to install new carpet and tile. So here's a series of before and after shots of OUR home! Enjoy!


This is the front of our house- We have since torn up almost all the bushes! They looked awful. I plan to plant lots of flowers in the spring. We didn't take a picture of it now because it's all covered in snow still.

This is shot #1 of our small backyard. We have since ripped out that weird tree bush thing. It didn't look too nice.

This is our deck with cute Danny boy measuring.

Sorry that was really long. But it's good documentation for us and our future posterity. :)

Hahaha! My favorite was how you got rid of the "nasty" border. Actually, my favorite is that you called it the nasty border! :) And I think it all looks fabulous, especially the "basement" after look. Cute!! Look at you be all grown up!! :) The random letters I have to type in today to leave this message are: tekoof. Now that I think of it, that would've been a fabulous name for your wedding gift - Tekoof. Maybe I can get you two an anniversary gift! ;)

How fun to have your own place! Thanks for tracking down my blog, Dan. It was great to hear from you! Yes, I am an old, old woman with two kids. But life couldn't be better :). I'm glad to have a way to peek in on you now.
