Home Improvements

Here are some pictures of our back deck. Here is dad back in March cutting the bush that used to be taking over the corner. As you can see the bush left the corner boards pretty messed up. Aaron replaced the last two boards and cleaned the entire deck.

Here he is staining the deck. Now it looks great!

As for other developments around the house...about two weeks ago (after a particularly hard rain storm) we notices a leak in the living room.

After a couple of estimates we found that while the leak was most likely a result of a fluke intrusion near the dormer, the roof should probably be replaced. However, as we are currently poor, we've decided to forgo immediate plans to re-shingle the roof and instead are having gutters installed in order to take care of some moisture in the crawl space.

The gutters should go on within the next couple of weeks.

Oh the joy of being a home owner - Don't get me wrong...I love our house! I love coming home and having had the opportunity to make this our home.
