The Steves: The New House
http://the-steves.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-house.html
Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Friday, January 22, 2010. It’s amazing what can happen in two month’s time. We closed on the new house a week ago. No, it’s not the house we wrote about in November. In fact, we were in contract one more time after that house before buying this. One, but that’s a story for another time. Dennis, Roman and I cannot wait to come for a visit! Congratulations on your new CA residence, and we hope you stay around this time. 08 May, 2010 07:34. You are welcome any time!

The Steves: House Buying
http://the-steves.blogspot.com/2009/10/house-buying.html
Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Wednesday, October 07, 2009. Well, it looks like we’ve bought a house! Well, we found a house that was not a foreclosure or short-sale, and we managed to get in an offer before anyone else, and it was accepted! So now comes the inspections to see if this really is the house for us. It is in a great location and has the right layout for our lifestyle. We think it’s the right one, but will need to make sure! 13 October, 2009 07:51. Hi Melanie, Paul and Sophie!

Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Friday, March 27, 2009. Well, the new kitchen is done! It only took about a month, but what a transformation! Without changing the position of the walls (although some of the wall between the kitchen and dining room was removed), the kitchen feels about 3 feet wider and incredibly spacious! It's hard to believe that this all happened so quickly, but the results are dazzling! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Samantha (age 12) and Sherman (age 6) complete their family.

Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Sunday, July 18, 2010. We are happily settled into our new home now. We’ve had a couple gatherings for the neighbors, co-workers, and church friends, and are looking forward to having more guests come once the summer heat has subsided a bit. We enjoy our neighborhood and meeting the neighbors. The dogs enjoy walks around the area too, although with the temperatures around 100, we’d all much prefer to be inside.

Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Saturday, March 26, 2011. The IRS Giveth and Taketh Away. It didn’t help that today was a particularly expensive day. Our little chihuahua, Sherman, had his annual veterinary checkup today. That, plus the annual 12-month supply of heartworm prevention medication for both dogs, cost us $440. Then I took my 11-year-old car to Jiffy Lube to get the oil changed, and they convinced me that I needed to use the synthetic oil, so my $30 oil change costs $70. This weekend is o...

The Steves: House Purchase Update
http://the-steves.blogspot.com/2009/11/house-purchase-update.html
Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Friday, November 13, 2009. Well, buying a house in the Sacramento market is definitely not as easy as it was back in Indiana! We are still in contract, but have had to deal with picky lenders and a lot of paperwork to make this happen. The good news is that it looks like we will close a little after Thanksgiving. The bad news, it’s only about 4 weeks later than we expected. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Samantha (age 12) and Sherman (age 6) complete their family.

Steve Wylie and Steve Gibson’s Blog. Friday, June 12, 2009. Steve W is getting ready to drive his car across the country. He's excited about the trip, although this is the longest distance he's driven by himself. Thankfully, the iPod will keep him occupied during the long trip. He has already booked his two overnight stays on the trip, finding a cool tool on the Wyndham Rewards. Website where you can look for hotels along your route. Another week of preparation, and he will be ready to go! We’ve ha...
