The "before" pictures

A few of you asked for pictures of the house we bought in May. Since it is the reason I haven't posted in a while, I figured I would get on that.

We didn't really have to do anything to move in, but there are still a few small projects on the list for inside and a couple of larger projects slated for the outside of the house. We do have one big project in the back room we want to accomplish, but that won't happen for another year or so.

We should be getting the last chair this week and that will complete the furniture buying for this phase.

Here are the "before the move" pictures of the house. I will post the "during the move" pictures soon and then I will take and post some "after the move pics in the next few days, or let's be realistic, weeks.

The living room is to the right just inside the door

The dining room is directly across from...
The kitchen!

The family room is an addition at the back of the house

It is "L" shaped and GIANT!
