Our First Spring as Homeowners

My wife Courtney and I are coming up on the first anniversary of moving into our first house up in Fishers, IN. We moved in last May. We have officially owned the home for over one year now.

This will be our first full spring as homeowners. I am looking forward to all of the fun that comes with owning a home in the spring time. The grass (and by grass I mostly mean weeds) is starting to turn green, trees are starting to bud, and a couple surprise flowers have popped up out back.

I am ready to get outside and do some work in the yard. I spent last weekend seeding and fertilizing the lawn in an effort to push the grass to weed ratio more toward the grass side. I'll likely have to paint our trim outside this year and potentially do some work on our chimney to help keep it from smoking in the house so much in the fall/winter months.

Hopefully there will be a deck and nice gas grill in our future, not sure when those will happen though. It is fun having new homeowner experiences as the seasons change.
