It's Theirs

On Tuesday, after a few harrowing moments when the unbalanced seller looked like she might back out, Katy and I went to SLC to close on their house. By late afternoon yesterday it had funded and it officially became Katy and Daniel's house (and I guess mine, technically). So now the real work begins.

At the title company

721 North 1200 East

Proud and happy

All this stuff will soon have a home

So will this, as well as the stuff in Uncle's basement

The living room after "crime-scene" cleaning

Kitchen

Family room at the rear of the house

Master bedroom ready for wallpaper stripping

Back bedroom -- likely an office (note the art on the walls)

Daniel strikes the first blow

Conquering the Hydra

There will be lots of work ahead, but that's all for now.

OXO

The amount of work makes me feel a little overwhelmed. Glad I don't have to do all the work, but will just get to enjoy the finished product.

Ditto to Anna! Congrats to K&D!

Having flashbacks about when I redid the yard and the living room of my parents' rental down 900 E a ways. We didn't use the front door for about six months...

Enough work to keep everyone out of trouble for a long time.

How exciting! Congratulations and GOOD LUCK to Katy and Daniel!

Sounds like the house has quite a story behind it. Exciting to get into a place of their own. :)
