New House Tour

Now that we are now a bit more settled in, I have time to sit down and share a few pictures of our new home!  It has so much potential and mostly needs some love, a few upgrades, and a lot of paint.  We love it and can't wait to make it feel like OURS.

When you walk in the front door and look to the left, you see the dining room:

To the right is the sitting room.  We aren't quite sure what to do with it.  Mike wants it to be his office but I'm not sure how I feel about the office being the first thing you see when you walk in the door.
 That room flows into our family room.  Loving the big bay window that looks into our screened in porch.
 Off of the family room, you find our BLUE (well, no longer blue) kitchen.  I mean, it. was. blue!


 Check out our walk-in pantry.  Room for food and kitchen appliances.  LOVE!
 Upstairs you will find our master bedroom (it is on the "to paint" list).
 Our master bathroom.  Super excited about our double sink, counter space, and bathtub!
I love our walk-in closet so much.  It really is so exciting to have room for all of my clothes and shoes.  I even share it with Mike!
Down the hall is Ethan's room.  Yup...that's right.  Don't worry, it was the first room we painted.
 Ethan's bathroom:
 Back downstairs and off the family room is our screened in porch that leads outside to our HUGE, fenced backyard.  There is also a huge garden full of fruits and vegetables.  I have a lot to learn before spring comes!

Basement with lots of storage:

 My future workout room:
Not shown: main level bathroom (also blue), 2 empty bedrooms upstairs, empty bedroom and bathroom in the basement. 

SOOOOOO...that's it.  We have already done some work and will be posting some progress pictures soon.  We truly feel blessed to be in a home where we can stretch out and grow as a family.  Can't wait for all of the memories that are to come.  So happy to be home.

Love it!!! You could put French doors and built ins in the room mike wants to make an office and I think it would work beautifully! My aunt and uncle have a similar set up and it works out nicely. Let's plan a plateaus with the kiddos over the holidays if you guys have any spare time.

Love love love it. That closet? That back yard? Amazing. Cant wait to see how you guys transform it! I am all too aware of how the words 'it just needs some paint' can become the death of you. Have fun!!
