need a new home?

We've decided to put our house on the market in hopes of moving closer to Chad's work, into a house with a little more space... and we're ready to experience a new part of Indy... well, south of Indy really.

Are we sad about the thought of moving?  Not really... neither one of us are too attached to our home, although we do really like it.  We are more excited about the thought of change than disappointed about leaving the little house we've called home for the last 4 years.  Of course it's never fun to move farther away from friends, but we'll still be close to them in relative terms... we won't be moving hours away - more like 30 minutes.  

The good news is that we aren't in a rush to move and don't Have to move if for some reason our house isn't very interesting to anyone else!  However, we have started looking at houses in Greenwood and already and found one we're Very fond of.... patience, patience!

Wow - our grass is bad, huh?!  hopefully it won't take too long to replace this with a 'sold' sign :)

our cute little house!  when we moved here the white trim and garage door was weird purple color?!  we also painted the front door and shutters black.

I did find a couple 'before' pictures of our living room and kitchen - it wasn't very pretty to say the least:

And here are some 'after' ones:

fresh paint, new appliances, beadboarding, new trim, and acid staining the floor were the main changes to the kitchen

we painted the living room the same color as the kitchen, put in new trim here too and switched out the carpet for laminate wood flooring

So if you know someone moving to Indy or within Indy - send them our way!
