Our house
This is the year my husband and I decided to upgrade some stuff in and around our house. First, I bought myself a new vehicle -- a 2010 Subaru Outback -- steel grey with black interior. Very nice. We decided to keep our Ford Explorer so we have three vehicles. We now have to make room in the garage in the 3rd bay which now houses a golf cart. Don't ask.
We had the counters in the kitchen replaced with granite and put in stainless steel appliances. The latest was a new microwave. Have also been working on the landscape of the yard. And now, since we have a cedar sided house, we have just accepted a bid to clean and stain the siding. We looked into replacing the siding, but that's just out of the question.
