Before and After

It has taken me a while, but here are some before and after pictures of our new house. We haven't really decorated yet (I'll just be happy to have all the boxes unpacked). But, at least you can see the new paint and carpeting we put in--well, maybe you can. I just noticed that you can't really tell from the pictures, but the carpet is a bit lighter and the paint is a bit darker than what was there before. Also, it is hard to tell from the pictures, but the house is much cleaner in the "after" pictures.

Family Room

Kitchen
Living room
Formal dining room (notice the new light fixture--we swapped it with the one in our old house)
I don't have before pictures for these, but here are a couple more pictures of the house:

Hall leading to the kids' bedrooms and the guest bedroom (we have a queen-sized bed in there, and we love visitors! hint, hint)
Thanks to the really nice weight set left by the previous owners, we also have a home gym.

Come on over and say "Hi!" Hayden may even share his fruit snacks with you :)

Those look great! The one thing I really miss about owning a house is being able to decorate.

Can't wait to see it! I am loving the dining set and the arches in the hallway.

I LOVE that hallway. The kitchen paint looks a thousand times better. You have been working so hard. You really are super mom! I cannot wait to come see it.

That last comment was actually from me. I forgot I was still signed in under my sister's account. Oops!

I love the kitchen! And I am jealous of your house! John and I own a home in Logan (which we are renting out), and I just really miss living in a home. Our apartment is nice, but there's nothing like having something of your own that you can change however you want. :) Looks beautiful.
