A Sweet Place

Well, it's time for the grand reveal! Sort of. These are mostly pictures of the house prior to us purchasing it. It has been way too disorganized to take pictures of it since we moved in. As soon as we get everything settled the way we want it (and painted, re-carpeted, new furniture in, curtains hung, etc.), I will post the new pics. Here is the house a couple of days after we moved in, following our little blizzard here in Lewisburg. The movers left our house about 2:00pm and at 3:00pm the snow started falling. When I left the house at 4:00pm to go pick up Noah from the babysitter's, I got stuck. Jeremy had to come get me and it took us an hour and a half to travel approximately 5 miles to pick him up. It didn't stop until we had about 20 inches on the ground! Here is what the house must look like under warmer conditions. :)

This is the living room off of the kitchen. Nice open layout.

Kitchen of course.


Master bedroom.


Master bath. Can't see the jacuzzi tub with cool glass door though.


Backyard. (Minus swingset.)


Not pictured is the dining room, front living room, powder room, three bedrooms, and guest bathroom. We have many plans and a lot of work cut out for us. We did a ton while our parents were here, including Jeremy's mom painting the guest bath, and his dad doing lots of electrical work. Now we have painters coming in for the next 2 weeks to repaint almost every surface (everything is dirty, scuffed, poorly painted, etc.) and we're having the three extra bedrooms re-carpeted. Yikes. Soon, we will have a comfortable, liveable house! And maybe someday the snow will melt, but not this week. Wind chill is in the single digits!

Can't wait to post 'before and after' pictures!

Beautiful! I love it. I can not wait to see what all you do to it. What are you going to do with all those rooms. Maybe Noah needs a sibling. Just a thought! I can not even imagine all that snow. I sure hope you got Jeremy a snow shovel for Christmas. Miss you!

What a beautiful home! Congratulations...I hope the improvements happen quickly. I can't wait to see more pics when all the painting and decorating is finished.
