For those of you keeping tabs on me, I'm now living in Fulton, MO working for Westminster College as the Donor Relations Coordinator for the Institutional Advancement (Fundraising) Department.



We bought our home August 15, 2005 and I couldn't be happier!  It is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch with just over 2,000 sq. ft. of living space!  Dick and I are very proud of the work we've done so far - check below for more pictures! 
We still have plans for improvements: new windows, a deck in the back yard, new landscaping in the front yard, adding a two-person whirlpool tub to the downstairs bath are all in the works (as money allows, of course!)  ***UPDATE - we have new windows! 
Dick and I are very proud that we accomplished this project on our own.  He would first use the Saws-all to cut out the old windows, then I would follow with the sander.  He would then bring the window up from the outside, and we took turns securing them in place.  Lastly, we ran insulation and caulk around the outside cracks.
When we bought the house, the entire inside was all painted one boring beige color... Here is our dining room after a few coats of "Old Burgandy" paint, new furniture, drapes, and a new light fixture. Hmm. Change of plans! The Blue Room will be converted into the nuserey, so our guests will have to make do with the bedroom downstairs after March 2007!
