Houseiversary 2016

We have own our house for 1 year! And it has changed - a lot. So I thought I would do an update on our original house post.

** I haven't taken a couple of photos but it's because we are in the middle of a project. I'll add then once the are in a presentable spot. **

Exterior:

Image

We have pulled out all the front overgrown bushes and trimmed the ones one the side, trimmed the tree, added a flower bed to the front, and painted the front door. 

Foyer:

Image

We ripped out all the walls separating all the rooms and painted.

Image


Living Room:
Image

Image

Image

We resurfaced the fireplace, upgraded to gas, painted, new flooring, mounted a TV and ran all the cables, and added lights.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Office/Playroom:

Image

We widened the doorway, started painting then I changed my mind (so thus it sits)

Right now this room is a catch all till our basement is finished. It is what it is.

Image


Kitchen:

Image
Image

We ripped out a third of our upper cabinets painted the rest, changed out the faucet, and borrowed one of the hall closets for a pantry (pretty certain the previous owners did the same)

Image

Image

Image


Dining room:

Image

Paint, floors, and changed out the chandelier. 

Image




Hallway:

Image

Image

Image


Paint, flooring, added lights (there were none - it was really dark) , rearranged some closets, and hung some art work

Image


Image


Image



Bathroom:

Image

Image

Bathrooms have not been touched (yet) a new toilet. It's white. It's pretty cool.

Image


 Bedroom 1:

Image

The kids got to pick their own paint. They really wanted all chalkboard but they settled for one wall. Light, closet upgrade,  and flooring too.


Image

Image


Bedroom 2:

Image

This is our second multipurpose room. It's Jeremy's office, Henry's bedroom, and our guestroom. Paint, no light (yet) closet upgrade, and flooring

Image


Master:

Image

Image

My room is currently covered in laundry. Currently not doing anything about it. Paint, closet upgrade, and flooring. The bathroom has a new towel rod. Probably seems like a weird thing to mention but I love it!

Basement:
 I didn't take any pictures of because the only thing that's change is that I've sweped it and we got a new furnace and water heater.

We do have plans drawn up and it most likely will be our next big project!

December 2015

December tends to be a fairly busy time of year for us. We have several standing parties and then several others on top. I like to make it special too. This year, non of that happened. We bailed on pretty much all the parties and instead lots of naps and did little things. 

We did do our annual fotofly pictures. Because I'm in love.

Image

Image

Image

We did our tree, later than normal but still.

Image


Image




Played games. Inside and in the snow.
