House Tour 2015

Surprise! After a 10-month absence, I am back...at least temporarily! Each year on our house-ervarsary (the day we moved into our house), I like to document our progress in each room and take some time to make some goals for the year moving forward. I love looking back at each year's post to see our house's evolution. So, I am back to do just that. Whether there will be more blog posts moving forward is kind of undecided, but for now, let's take a look at our humble abode 2015 style!
Our goal (at least when Josh is willing to admit it) is to be moving about a year from now. Therefore, we probably won't be doing any crazy upgrades, but instead fine tuning the place and getting it in tip-top shape!
