My boyfriend and I bought our first home on April 6th, 2007.  I've been getting into the "new homeowner" role.  We want to make our 25 year old Zero Lot Line comfortable and modern while side-stepping some of those "me too" decorating themes that most new homes have (brushed nickel, anyone?).  You have to have the class to be unique!  I'm also trying not to be in denial that the house is 25 years old, so I'm ebracing some of its characteristics.
