Eric and I moved to Boise at the end of December. A week before we moved the house we were planning on buying fell through. We were SUPER bummed and were kind of at a loss what to do now. We started to look at apartments in Boise which was such a bummer after thinking we would be living in a house soon. Then Eric's parents found another house and put an offer on it the very next day. It is a short sale house though so you never know how long those can take. We went to look at it, walked in the door and our jaws dropped. The owner of this home has a 205 pound mastiff who lives in the home. The walls were covered in big brown chunks of dried dog saliva. The banister was chewed and a lot of the carpet was ruined.
All I could think was OH MY GOODNESS! We have so much work ahead of us!! We are repainting the entire house replacing carpet and building a loft upstairs.
So a month later of living with my parents we are finally closing on the house and moving in this weekend! We get the keys on Wednesday and will be cleaning until Friday when Eric's parents get here to paint Friday and Saturday. We are so excited to finally be in our own place and get settled. We went and bought a washer and dryer on saturday and feel like such big kids! haha Once we are all settled I will post pictures of the clean walls and new carpet... and the rest of the place! Until then we are waiting till the weekend! WOOHOO!
