We decided organising a wedding in a far away land, really wasn't enough stress for a young, carefree couple to have. So we decided why the heck not, lets add to the stress....lets look to buy our first home! We didn't want to do the easy route of looking for a nicely finished townhouse or condo, something we could move into and live happily ever after. We wanted something that needed a little TLC, some elbow grease and a place where Chris could attempt to get his DIY (do-it-yourself) on (and try to rid himself of those baby soft hands)..........and at 332 Taylor Street, we certainly found it!

| The best part of the house - a mural (in wallpaper) of stunning Alpine Lake/Mountain in the living room - genius idea! |

| The Kitchen |

| The very old bathroom, with just a little asbestos in the lino in the corner!! |

View looking through the back door - too much snow to open said door! Looking out onto National Forest and Lionshead Rock! |
We couldn't resist the challenge, and the potential greatness of this rather old, shabby mining home. So on the day we flew to England for our wedding, we made a quick detour into Denver to sign papers and close on our very first home!
On May 28th Chris and I became home owners!
