House

So I haven't been working on things lately because Eric and I bought a house!!! So I said goodbye to the apartment I have lived in for the last nine years and hello to a place of our own.  Things are still in boxes and we are slowly putting things in their place so I don't have pictures of the inside yet but I will post this when I do.

 

 Eric calls it our Harry Potter house because it kind of looks like row houses in England.

The house has a carport with electricity so eventually we are thinking of closing it off and making a garage out it. We could even eventually raise is and make a mother-in law suite there. 

I figure every house needs a pair of flamingos...of course Eric and I's are undead flamingos!

 

 One thing the house has a lot of is Bamboo!!  I put up some adds on craigslist for people to come dig up the bamboo and I have had four people come by and put a little dent in it.  Next summer, I want to put a vegetable along the side of the house...but we have to get rid of the bamboo first.  I will need to fence it in because we get a lot of deer around.

In preparation for the garden I made a compost bin out of pallets I "borrowed" from work.  I am all about the reduce, reuse, and free!!!! 

We have already received three housewarming gifts. 

 A Bacon Christmas Tree ornament!  Who doesn't love Bacon. 

 A Dish towel from my mom...just in time for Halloween and it matches my stove. 

and LuLu...our attack flamingo my friend Vicki made me and I adore!!!!  Why wouldn't you love a Drag Queen Flamingo!!
