Day 359: A Look Back

Next Thursday we'll celebrate one year of home ownership! We can scarcely believe it's been almost a year since we sat in our attorney's office signing our lives away on a hope and a dream ;) We've certainly come a long way since then, but we still have a long way to go.

It was a whirlwind process between Shannon's initial look, his second and third looks and finally taking me out with our agents there for emotional support to gauge my level of terror, and then finally - our inspection and final walk-through. Looking back now, I wonder how sane we were during everything ;)

We're looking forward to celebrating our achievements over the past year, and getting motivated to push through with more progress in the coming year (and the many years that follow - Rome wasn't built in a  day, right? ;)

We've started getting together before and after photos and hope to have some better ones soon.

But here's a doozie for today - what we saw when we walked in on June 7 for our home inspection. We can laugh about it now, but it was intimidating to say the least!
