Home for the Holidays

A lot of our family and friends back home have asked to see pictures of our new house. We are finally finished with the renovations so here ya go. This post will be a mish-mosh of before and afters of our renovations as well as pictures of our Christmas decorations!

This is the only picture I can find of the front of the house so ignore the pumpkins. We hated the way this house looked in pictures and we almost didn't even look at it! The brick/siding mix was a huge turn off to us. But once we pulled up it didn't bother us AT ALL! We actually really liked it!

 

This was our kitchen when we bought the house.

And after! We took down the overhang cabinets, painted everything white, and had an island built. I LOVE IT!

 And after!

All we did here was change out the light fixture.

Keep in mind that the kids decorated the tree and I couldn't bring myself to change anything.

 

We didn't do anything in the dining room but I do have some plans for that light fixture.

Upstairs living room. 

 

Little E's room. She has this antique looking girly wall paper that I initially thought I was going to take down. But I actually LOVE it and am not touching it! 

Kade's room before

 

We painted it navy because we want to add wainscoting and crown molding after the first of the year. 

This is from when we first moved in but our backyard is the number 1 thing we love about the house! 

So there it is! Our humble abode! We both agree that if this house was close to family it would be our perfect house. It isn't anything special or fancy but it is comfy, cozy, and everything that we love in a home!
