Fixer Upper Number 3

Remember I posted last summer and mentioned that our house sold?  Well, that post was slightly premature since we ended up waiting five months for the sale to go through.  That waiting period was so hard and we wanted several times to just quit the sale and do a rental instead.  But the sale did finally close the week before Christmas.  We are so thankful! What a wonderful Christmas present for us!
In the meantime, guess what we did? 

Dan started getting antsy about not having a project to do, so he looked for a house online, and found one which we walk thru and I didn't like or think was a good idea.  The next day he called a realtor on another house and he and the realtor walked through that house once.  He came home, told me he thought we should buy it, I agreed without looking at it, and three days later, we owned it! 


 
It had some foundational issues, so Dan did some extensive work digging the foundation clear and basically rebuilding much of it. 
It all happened so fast that I didn't get many pictures taken.  Two days after we made the purchase, Dan had the whole thing re-roofed. 



So there's my exciting bit of news!  Fixer upper Number 3! Who knows what will happen next!?
