Our House!!--Before and After

So Brian and I bought our first house at the beginning of June.  We spent many long hours that first week re-carpeting, re-painting, and working on few other projects.  I have been wanting to post some "before and after" pictures and I am finally getting around to it.  But first, I want to express a huge thank you to all of those that helped us paint, lay carpet, move in, etc.  We are blessed to have amazing family and friends who were willing to help us.  I don't have pictures of everyone who helped out....but here are a few.  Thank you!

Look at all that painter's tape!  That is the tape from the whole house!

Now we will look at some before and after pictures! (The before pictures are the ones the sellers posted online so they are a bit blurry)

Well, that concludes the "before and after" tour of our house!  (There is one more bathroom downstairs and a laundry room that aren't shown above.)  We have loved it so far!  There is definitely a lot of responsibility that comes with home ownership, but it is a lot of fun too.  It is fun to work on projects together to continue to improve our home. :)
