Finally Pictures of the house!!

We finally moved in before Thanksgiving. It has been crazy since but little by little I am getting there. So, here are some pictures of our lovely home. It is small but we love it! We have a nice front yard and big back yard. It will takes us a long time to cut the grass since we don't have a riding lawn mower. It will be a great exercise though!! We live really close to an elementary school; which is nice when Samuel starts.


As you can see I haven't decorated yet. I was just waiting after Christmas. I am trying to find a nice color for the kitchen. We put new cabinets and counter tops. We love it! The french door you see in the kitchen leads to our work room, laundry room office and pantry. Excuse the mess but it has been busy here. I will get it together this year. That, my friends, is my one goal!
The pantry is right after the piano. We had to break the wall down to make it into a pantry. Michael had fun doing that but it is such a useful space now. I am still organizing our food storage.
As you can see my wonderful husband gave me an early valentine, anniversary, and birthday gift. I love my piano. I just started to learn how to play and can't wait to teach my boys!! Sorry, just jumped into a different subject now going back.
Downstairs we will turn it into a family room. As you can see we have lots of work ahead of us. We hope to finish it at the end of the year. I have to start saving for that!!

I will put more pictures later just because our bedrooms are not ready to be viewed.
Our family is way excited to be here for now and I just don't want to think about moving yet even though it will happen.

Fun pictures! Thanks for posting them. I really like your paint color choices. You'll have to help me out when we buy a house someday! Hopefully you won't have to move for awhile. :) Looks like you guys have done lots to your house since moving in! Great job!
