The good, The bad, The house



Home Sweet Home! 
We finally got our house! So I was a little upset that we didn't get a renovated house, but looking on the bright side we did end up with a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath house. Rene had me worried that the house was absolutely terrible. And I won't lie that when I got to the house I wasn't in the least bit impressed. Then FMO got here with our loaner furniture, I wanted to cry when I sat on the bed. We have an extremely firm full size bed.  It seems as though we keep downsizing in the beds we get. Now that we have our house I desperately want my own stuff :(  Hopefully it won't be much longer till we get it!! 

So this is the street we live on. I took it while I was walking back home from the Thursday market.
The walk way into the master bedroom. There is the bathroom on the left, which I forgot to take a picture of but I assure you it's nothing fancy. I need to figure out a way to make us some shelves or some good storage space under the sink because that's all we were given in there.. Oh and a tiny medicine cabinet behind the mirror.
This is the master bedroom. With our lovely loaner furniture but hey I made the bed!!
The living room, taken from the stair well.  
 
 At least they have grippies so we don't fall ??? haha the stairs remind me dorms or of a sorority house. To the left is a storage closet that desperately needs a light for it.
My AWESOME stairs lol!!  The 2nd full bathroom is straight ahead. The 1st door on the left is the master, dividing the master and the 2nd bedroom on the left is a linen closet. To the right is another closet and then the 3rd bedroom. 
Upstairs bathroom.
Room #2 which I think I am going to turn into my office/ craft room. Not sure yet but this is probably where my desk will be going. 

View of the front door. To the left is the half bath, the laundry room and the door to the car port, which is a pain in the ass to open by the way. The locks here spin about 2-3 times... until it's locked/unlocked. It's weird and that door gets stuck all the time. I can't imagine what it'll be like in the summer when the wood swells, if it does that here...
 
Downstairs Bathroom, it's so weird that the bathroom is ALL tile. To the right of the door is a linen closet.
Our backyard.

 
Our dinning room. Hopefully we can get us a nice table made out here. I've been telling Rene I want one, lets cross our fingers that he gets that I REALLY want a new table haha.
Laundry room and other stuff. Behind the door there is a pretty big closet I'm assuming you could use it to stash all of your dirty clothes while you are doing laundry? Not sure.
Looking out the dining room window into the front yard. I've got a palm tree and an orange tree! I'm not sure that that's a palm tree but  I know for sure that's an orange tree :) 
Kitchen
Old school light fixture. 
Another view into the kitchen. 
The back of the house.
This has got to be my favorite part of the house! All of the rooms and bathrooms have to be locked with a key. I'm sure it wont be very funny when Rene locks me in a room or bathroom but for the time being I think these things are the coolest thing ever haha. You can see through the key hole too! Oh the simple things that entertain me :) 


**Sorry that the pictures are all scattered around, it was a chore in itself to get them off my phone**
