Whole House Before and After

So life happens quick.

We have been feeling the stains of a "too small" house for awhile now.  So about a month ago I decided that I would make a call to our mortgage broker and see what we would qualify for and if I could even find a house in that range that was worth considering. You know it it goes... "just to see." Within 2 weeks we were under contract on a new house and then under contract on our house right after!  It was insane.  We still have to get through inspections and appraisal, but it looks like we're moving!

But since I never really blogged the renovation of our house like I wanted to, I thought it would be fun to compare the before pics with the pics from our MLS listing.

So here goes.

Before-  Exterior

After

We actually painted the front door after this pic was taken. It made such a difference!  Why didn't we do that years ago?!

Before- Living Room

Before- Kitchen

Before- Family Room

Before- Master Bedroom

Before- Master Bath

Before- Second Bath

And here are rooms that didn't even exist when we moved in!

Bedroom 4

Bedroom 5

1/2 Bath

Laundry

And we also put in the backyard completely from scratch.  I wish I had pics from in the summer when everything is green and bloomed.

 My adorable chicken coop.  It's coming with us, but I fear the day we actually move it! 

 

Thats it! It has been a labor of love and I can't believe we have been here for over 4 years already.  This home has served us well but I'm ready for the next adventure!

Liam's Nursery

So you know how I had a baby?  Well that was over 18 months ago.  And he has a stinkin cute room that I never photographed or blogged about.  Because I suck.  But it got cleaned today so I decided to fix that.  It may only be iPhone pics, but whateves.

Liam's Little Lamb Nursery

I just love this shelf above the changing table.

Especially this little wooden lamb I made. I'm kinda proud of him.

But my favorite part is his newborn pics.

I have the cutest babies!

WYLTC- Spring 2015

Wood You Like to Craft is back with some Spring!!!  I'm sharing this....

 

Go check it out HERE.

Say what?!?

Did you realize that blogger has an app? You did?  Oh... I guess it's just me.

I was sitting here thinking how much I miss blogging, but I'm never on my computer anymore because I'm always on my phone.  And I take 99% of all pictures on my phone, and who has time to look for cords, and then sit in one spot.  Sigh.... (1st world problems) 

Then I thought, too bad I can't just blog from my phone so that I will actually write a blog post. (What a concept!)

Then I thought.... I bet blogger has already thought of this.  Then I checked the App Store.  And here I am.  Blogging. From. My. Phone.

In bed.

So ya.  Maybe I will start blogging again after all.

I've sure missed it!

And because no blog post is complete without a picture...

This is my excuse not much blogging.  

He has a birthday this month.  Babies grow too fast!

But ya.  I should blog.  I have lots to show you guys!
