New House!!!!!!!

As the title states, we just closed on our new home here in Kingwood this past Wednesday. We were waiting to mention it until we closed and the house was truly ours. House specs: built in 1989, lot size is 13,000 square feet, house is 2656 square feet, two story, detached garage with covered walkway leading from the house to the garage, 4 bedrooms (master is down), 2.5 baths, kitchen with double ovens, new range and refrigerator (which we just bought), family room, dining room, formal living room and a gameroom upstairs with three bedroom and a full bath. Did I mention there was a pool in the backyard?!! Yes!! With a waterfall. The house is truly perfect and exactly what we were looking for. The previous owner put in 20k of upgrades which include new carpet throughout the house, new paint inside and outside, new granite countertops, new sinks, mirrors and light fixtures in the kitchen, upgraded master bath and half bath, new tile surround shower in the master bathroom, new ceramic tile in the entryway and half bath, new roof, new pool heater....that is all I can think of right now. It is basically a new house with everything he did. Along with the new refrigerator that we just bought that will arrive tomorrow, which I am completely excited about. It is a 25 cubic feet GE french door bottom freezer. Oh...can't wait. We have placed an order for 2" wood blinds for most of the windows in the house. The house has a lot of BIG windows. Below are some pictures of the house shortly after we put in an offer, therefore, it was still under "construction". Ignore the mess you see in the pictures and the green pool - it is now blue. And the kid in the picture does not come with the house!! It is the oldest kid (one of the 5 or 7 kids) of the previous owner.
