A lot has happened since I last posted...and it's all happening so fast! Jared and I are now in the process of purchasing this home! WOO HOOOOOO! It's a charming little 2 bedroom one bath home with an unfinished basement that was built in 1944! But don't let the white fool you...Jocelyn and Lizzie call this their rainbow house, and for good reason!
Here is the living room! It's a good size with a gas fireplace, bay window and arched entry way...still wondering why it's called the rainbow house?
TA DUMMMMMM! Here is the obscenely pink bathroom accented with blue stripes in the tile all over a bed of red carpet. The interesting thing about this bathroom is that it is divided into a toilet room and a shower room by a sliding pocket door. There are actually two doors from the hallway that go into each room! FUNNY!!!
Next is the kitchen/dining room combo! I for one LOVE it like crazy!!! We're not changing the colors at all! Notice the retro light fixture! It's a round flourescent fixture! We will add a dishwasher eventually and maybe some more cabinets on the wall that's not pictured.
There is tile around the entire room as well as a funky green carpet. We too will change out the carpet but like I said we're leaving the tile and green paint...there's also a bay window here. So that's the big news in our family! Not much else though! Let me know what you think!

a home!!!! Congrats, that's so exciting!!!! I LOVE that your girls call it the Rainbow House.. too cute! And to be very honest... I LOVE that kitchen, i'm into green and i LOVE retro. but that bathroom... whoooo eee! that's a doozy!!
It's so cute! There is a lot of potential, just some new carpet and paint and it will be adorable! I'm so excited for you guys
As long as it doesn't smell like green beans then you are set.
Peace Out

CONGRATS! I agree. The kitchen is great. The pink bathroom though... I love the house. I'm really happy for you. Owning a home is SO much better than renting. If you do make changes, you should take pictures and post them. :)
Now I get to see the inside and you totally were not lyig about the colors!! I kinda like the bathroom though....haha...hope things go smoothly for ya!!! Not that I am an expert because I don't own my home...or have a mortgage...but I talk to people all day that do....let me knew if you questions that in my limited abilty maybe could answer!!!
Yeah, a house for you guys! That's so fun, and I love the kitchen! That bathroom is so funny, we had one like that when my parents were renting here in Utah. Carpet around the toilet is NOT cool.
Congratulations! That's so awesome you guys are getting a house. Those colors are pretty crazy though! Who knew you could have pink tile in your bathroom?! ;)
Congratulations!! We live in an old house right now, built in the 30's. It's great, until I go into a more modern house, and I miss all the fun fixtures. Good luck in the process!
Holy Moly! I love it. How fun. I love the retro and I love older homes. MY dad was born in 1944 :)
glad you found me. :)
Thanks for the tour! I stopped at Jimi's house and Alyssa and I tried to guess which one was yours, I don't remember this one (after all, we were looking for a "rainbow" house, LOL). What's with pink bathrooms anyway? That's how our was. You may not care for pink, but I'm sure your girl LOVE it! :D (Missed you today. Hope all else is well.)
Looks like a great house with lots of character, how exciting! It's the best when you have a place of your very own, especially with kids. Where is the house at? Good luck with moving in!
Britt! I'm so glad you found me!!! Your family is adorable and I LOVE LOVE your new house!!! I am in love with the kitchen also!! Very jealous!! That is very exciting!!! We are officially blogging buddies!!!
I love the kitchen!! I'm so glad you posted pictures, I've been itching to see that green kitchen. It's more fab than I envisioned.
It's so cute! There is a lot of potential. Looks like a great house with lots of character, how exciting!
