More Pictures of the House and thoughts

I promised more pictures once we got the furniture in. SO....
Here's a picture of part of the formal dining room w/furniture.

Here's a picture of the bedroom. We got the bed, 2 nightstands, a dresser, and the chest. The brand is AICO.

Here's the picture that everyone has been wanting of the front yard.

And last but not least, this is a knife that I picked up last year in Las Vegas while the boyfriend & his boss was at the Nascar race.

I can say that it's been 5+ years in the making. Although we just bought the house in August, we have been looking at this furniture set for awhile. We also went from a 2 bd 900 square ft house to a 5 bd 2400 sq ft 2-story house, to what we have now, a 4 bd 3600 sq ft house. Went from processing claims at 8.50 an hour, to getting a degree in architecture and making a little more than $30,000 a year. I can say that I am very content with my life. I have gone through so much BS in the past and I am finally happy. The family members that read here know that I went from working at Del Taco and living in a 5th wheel motor home to what I have now. I mentioned to Huggy-Bear that when I talk about the things that I have, I feel kind of stupid for "bragging". But then I think about it and it's not that I'm bragging because I'm not, I'm just finally happy because all the hard work has finally started to pay off. So, for all of you that think that dreams can't come true. I'll be 35 on Friday, I went back to school when I was 30ish, and now......keep reaching for your goals and keep your head up everyone.... your life is what you make of it.
