And so it begins...


After two years of searching, we* have found our dream home: a beautiful brick cape cod built in the 1950s with a redone kitchen, amazing three-season room, high-quality slate roof, and lots of space. The good news is that it's in great condition (as far as we know). The bad news is that we don't know much about maintaining a home. But thanks to the wonder of the Internet, I thought we would recruit our network of more experienced friends and family members to help us learn fast. This blog will be a space for us to discuss our ideas for decoration, repairs, and just living in our new home. With three weeks to close, we are already planning paint colors, room layouts, and furniture purchases. Leave a comment and let us know what you think!

*Who are "we"? Well, most of you reading the blog already know that, but for new friends who have stumbled on our page, "we" are J and D and our two cats, about to embark on the adventure of home ownership.
