Throwback Thursday?

It is not uncommon to post pictures from the past on Facebook on Thursdays with the hashtag #TBT for "ThrowBack Thursday".

We brought along a lot of pictures with us in the bus with the intention of scanning them in and getting rid of (donating to Dwayne's sister) the physical pictures. In going through these pictures, there are some pictures and some stories that we thought our readers might enjoy, so at various times, you might see some pictures from the past, and today is one of those days!

These were pictures that we had sent to Patti's Aunt Libby and Granny as we were excited about getting "our" house soon after we were married.Aunt Libby had kept them in a photo album that we had given them.
The house on Meadowglen Circle as it looked when we were in the buying process for it - probably March 1990. Our 1984 Honda Accord is in the foreground (Patti's first Honda).

Before we could move into the "new" house, we had to prepare Dwayne's house to be rented out. We replaced wallpaper, changed flooring, and Dwayne built a closet in one of the bedrooms (he had sacrificed the closets in the master bedroom, hallway, and second bedroom to make a wonderful walk-in closet for Patti in the master bedroom).
A younger looking Dwayne looks happy to be doing work on the house. You can see we had completed more of that corner of the kitchen from the upper picture with Patti to this one. Look at that, uhm, bright teal backspash on the far right!
