Our First Home

Andrew and I bought our first home in North Wales, PA in early 2001 and since it was new construction, it was completed in May 2001. Andrew moved in once we closed and I moved in after our wedding two months later. We still currently live here and it has brought us over five good years to date and has seen us through many life experiences - our marriage, our first dog, our first child, and numerous parties and gatherings.

Here are some of the photos we took during the construction phase. It is strange to look back on these now and imagine that we stood in our cozy home when it was in its bare bones stage!

Some photos taken on the inside. Here I am in the master bath shower stall and Andrew is in the hall bathtub. Wow, and I think the shower stall looks dirty when it hasn't been cleaned for a few weeks! That's nothing compared to this!:

Some outside pictures of our end unit. We actually lucked out in acquiring this particular model since we placed our deposit months after all of the other end units had been filled. It just so happened that two other offers on our unit had fallen through and we were in the right place at the right time so we jumped at the opportunity to leave our deposit when we learned that in fact an end unit was available!

The siding goes up...

And up goes the stucco and the stones on the front...
