The Best 3 Bedroom in Independence

For the last few months, Bill and I have been working very hard on some light renovations to get his house ready for sale this spring.  I love decorating so he put me in charge of choosing paint colors, floor finishes, light fixtures, and hardware.  I've always been a renter so I've never experienced the joy of home renovations: projects don't go as planned; materials don't come in when they're supposed to, things you bought just don't quite fit right, discovering a big problem when you go to fix a little one, the handyman doesn't show up, 3 trips to Lowe's in one day, etc.

We're pretty proud of how everything turned out and are optimistic about the sale.  He likes to joke that now he wishes he could live in the house for awhile ;-)  Check out all our hard work -- and of course tell your house-hunting friends!
