Home Improvements






We have been constantly changing things in our new home!! We've been lucky to have a lot of help of from family and friends, which has made things go a little smoother. We finally got our refridgerator delivered and I was also able to put our dishes and kitchen stuff away.

Here's a list of what we've done so far:
-Removed all the popcorn ceiling texture, retextured and painted the ceilings
-Put new tile down in our kitchen and utility room
-Put in hardwood floors in our living room, entry way and hallways
-Painted walls in master bedroom, kitchen, hallways, entry way, and living room
-Sanded, primed and painted all the workwork and trim (a pretty summer white color)
-Cleaned up the backyard (took out an old dog run fence and a huge grape vine growing on it)

What we're working on now:
-Sanding all the kitchen cabinents and drawers to get ready to be painted, in the same summer white color as the trim.
-Painting the spare bathroom (I'm ready to get rid of the ugly mauve color that's in there now!!)

What we're thinking about for the future:
-A nursery!
-A master bath entire remodel

We're Expecting!

We found out on Mother's Day that we're going to have a baby! I'm due in January. We're excited and nervous!
