Home Sweet Home: Pictures of Before

Thank you Lord, and our amazing school system for the winter break. We needed 4 straight days of working on the house, and moving. Also, praise the Lord for beautiful weather, and super wonderful friends that help move the massive pieces of furniture. Gah, this town is just absolutely amazing!

Nothing could be possible without P& D who drove our new furniture down and helped with the painting. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. (See, no comments about how my painting wasn't good enough.)

Now, for pictures of this little home sweet home.... All of these pictures are before we have anything moved in. I will be updating you once we have Jerry Rice pictures on the wall, and a few more Carley touches added.

My entire house is really being designed around one chair. This bad boy will get a post all on its own when it arrives. I get butterflies when I think of how perfectly it will go in the livingroom. Oh, now for the tour...

First, this is the big wall in the livingroom. It WAS a very pretty but very bold teal.

 Well, Jarvis Jones' helmet may not go so well with teal. So, I spent one afternoon deciding on colors.

Then, late one night after a baseball game, my sweet friends came to keep my company while this went down...

This week I turned 26. Here are a few of my birthday gifts: 

the house charm from a BFF. I cried. duh. 

paint and new door knobs. happy birthday! 

whooooppppp whoooopppp. 

Now, it looks so much better! Here is a little glimpse of what the new space will look like.

 This is Coach's favorite part of the house. His "room." It had to be painted... so here is the before...

 Here is a look at the "during" process of arranging his things. I need to add that he worked for an hour doing this. The explained the reasoning of why a book was placed on a certain shelf. Yes. True story.

 Great room. 

 Dining room. 

 Front door. 

 Fire place, and the home of our TV.

 Master bathroom. 

 Kitchen and breakfast area. 

We absolutely love this home. I can't wait to look back in a few years and see how much we have changed. I guess that is the best part of a blog. I get to document every step of this little journey! We greatly welcome all prayers as we take this step! Thanks for all the love and support!

Love love,
