The newest addition to our family...

A new home!!!  Yes, we finally did it...purchased a home in Kansas City!  It was a bit of a challenge this last week, but it's finally official!  Here's the cute gift from our realtor, Steph @ Boveri Realty



Our new home is a condo in the One Park Place building!  It's an old office building that was converted into condos a few years back.  Our unit is brand new - never lived in!  It's actually only 3.3 miles from our current place.  We decided that we wanted to stay in the city.  So we're literally moving from the North end of downtown to the South end, which I think is officially the start of "Midtown".  It's a bit different from our current place, because there isn't many places to walk to.  That will take a bit of getting used to, but we just couldn't pass it up. Here's a few pics of the building...








I think what I'm looking forward to most - besides having a place of our own - is the awesome amenities:  saltwater indoor pool, outdoor pool, gym, yoga room, sauna, temperature-controlled wine locker, 24-hour doorman, garage, billiard's room and storage locker.  I'm sure I'm forgetting a few...probably those that I'll never use like the golf-simulator.  LOL!




The building is located on a hill next to a park, which makes for great views!  We closed today and are planning about 3 weeks of renovations.  It's a bit too "off white" at the moment...off-white carpet, walls & cabinets.  So we're planning on painting everything, replacing the carpet with ebony hardwood and adding a custom closet & blinds.  This means that I'll be sharing lots of Before & After pics in the future, but here's a few pics to get you started.

We're so excited to get started with everything!  Can't wait for you all to come & visit!!
Cheers!
