It's this time of year that we bought our house in 2005. I suppose you could call this place a money pit, because it sure has been one! I looked up the pictures that I took just before we moved in. (Put on a new metal roof, installed a new central system, installed a tankless water heater, and new windows and outside doors the first year)
Lots of changes in our back yard. The little metal shed in the center of the picture was the first thing we tore down and replaced it with a larger wood one. After a few years, DH and son tore off the leaky, damp back porch.
We still had the cement 'patio' and spent ages trying to get someone out here to help with the tripping crack. Another couple years and we put a new metal roof and siding on the garage. (sorry, no pic.) Then we put in a new kitchen and remodeled the bathroom and talked the man into putting up a better handrail by the back steps.
It wasn't until this year that we found someone to help our problem with the tripping crack and slippery steps. I must say, I do like my new deck!
I believe we are finished!
