Our New Home

A few of my out-of-town family and friends have been asking for photos of our new home, so I am finally posting a "tour."
Warning, there are a lot of house pictures and not much of the boys, so if you're not interested feel free to skip this post :).

Here's our house!

This is what you see when you enter our house. This is the day I was having a little "sprinkle" for my friend Diane, so there are a few baby things sitting around the house. I figured this might be the cleanest and most picked up it'll ever be so I'd better take the pictures! Straight ahead is the staircase going up to our game room (the only room upstairs) and then the family room. To the left is the hallway going down to the boys' rooms, and to the right is the dining room (we are using it as a library).

Here's the library. Right now we have it set up for the party, but usually we have a rug in here and we are planning on finally getting our sofa out of storage and putting it in here. We have had our storage unit since we put the house on the market and STILL haven't emptied it out. We need to soon! We haven't painted any of the house yet, but we are planning on painting most of the rooms and hallway, hopefully soon. It's taken me longer than I thought to do anything in the house. We'll get to it eventually I guess. We also haven't hung any pictures or anything yet, I think that'll be the next step.

Here's the family room with the kitchen behind it. So far we replaced the floors and blinds in here, but that's about it.

I wanted to post pictures of these Thanksgiving printables I found online: http://www.flamingotoes.com/2010/11/get-your-pie-on/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+FlamingoToes+%28Flamingo+Toes%29http://tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com/2010/11/great-ideas-thanksgiving-printables.html and http://craftily-ever-after.blogspot.com/2010/10/thanksgiving-gather-here-with-grateful.html

I had some requests to post where I found them. Hopefully this works, I don't know how to put links on very well.

View of the kitchen from the eating area. We are planning on painting the cabinets a cream color so I'll have to post pictures once we finish that. You can see into the library way in the back of the kitchen.

This is the favorite part of the kitchen, the tiny butler's pantry.

more kitchen.

Our bedroom. It's located right off of the family room. So far we replaced the floor and blinds, but still need to paint. I painted that chest at the end of our bed and I started to paint our bed. I'm painting the furniture cream and the bed got SO scratched up during the move, plus I dropped the base of the bed and broke the post. Ooops. Ryan's going to try to fix it, we'll see. I think our room is going to be on the bottom of the priority list!

Down the hall is the half bath. Needs some paint! Lots of the house is white or cream so I'm excited to add some color to it.

Cooper's room! Yes, it's pink. It's still pink even thought it's been almost a month. He doesn't seem to care though, and we'll be painting it first.

Jackson's room. It was already yellow which is perfect for his room, and we added that lovely window covering. So chic huh?The last room downstairs is the playroom.

And that's the house! I don't have a picture yet of the gameroom and I'm too lazy to take one now so I'll have to post one later.

I of course have to post at least one picture of the boys! Jackson loves to give Cooper a hug. Awww, sweet boys.

So that's it! I hope that you all who live far away can sometime come visit us here!
