Living the Small Life

We have finally moved in! Is the house done? No. Do we have a driveway, front yard, or stairs leading up to the front of the house? No. Are we glad we went ahead and moved in? YES!

To be honest, we are exhausted. We are at the point where the words “hammer”, “air compressor”, or “paint” make us dry heave. All in all, we’re in need of a serious break. So, we decided to move into the house (even though it’s unfinished) and relax.


I was pleasantly surprised to find out that our most important things fit into the house nicely. I had to purge A LOT (and I still have more to work on- it’s sitting in my parents’ basement), but there is this amazing cleansing feeling that I get when I don’t have stuff that I never use lurking in cabinets and closets.  I will be posting pictures of our storage solutions/organizational information under the "Downsizing" tab soon.

Cooking our first meal! 


Looking into the bedroom after coming up the stairs

Craft area- to the right of Oreo is the door to our closet, and the stairs are just beyond that on the right. 

Looking into the downstairs while standing on the stairs. Ignore the unfolded quilt!

Kitchen

Alex's computer closet is under the stairs- still needs trim and a door. Also, pretend the stairs are stained and have trim. :) 

Our non-existent front yard
