HOME SWEET ("sweat") HOME

Here she is! Our "new" home. Built in 1963, the exterior of the house reflects our style very well (except for the cacti, but hey what can we expect, we do live in AZ ;) Eventually the entire front yard will be grass, Billy even wanted to remove the circle drive, but I fought hard to keep it, so far, I am winning this battle... The rock and vegetation have already been removed. We are replacing the windows at the end of February, it was a tough decision, we like the historical aspect of the 60's diamond design, but they are not energy efficient AT ALL! (And truly, they are quite hideous if you give them even the slightest glance from a distance any closer than the street :/) Once the interior is finished we will paint the exterior trim and stucco, and also replace the shutters around all of the windows.
