Our Home


After a year of having our offers rejected and ignored we bought a house! A huge thanks to our amazing realtor, Lars Nordstrom. When I was discouraged and wanted to give up he fought for us, stayed optimistic and showed us countless houses until we found the perfect one! I waited until we had at least one room mostly done before posting pics. The rest is a work in progress and we've got nothing but time. I've included some before & afters.
Living before
The Living Room after! Nope, not really much furniture yet but it's great for the kids to run amuck in! This room wil eventually be painted light grey.
Family Room before

Dining & kitchen before

after...kitchen before. The cheap laminate was warped and holey in the kitchen from previous flooding. Yay for tile!







Master Bedroom. Yes, we painted it a dark crazy taupe color. I like to call it our cave ;) I promise it will work once we've added curtains & other randomness!

Master Bath
Kid's Bath
Play Room. I love being able to close the door on the mess!

Awesome! Mike and I have been plotting some of the projects we want to do when we get the keys to our house in January. We were just looking at taupe/gray/blue/beige colors last night. Can't wait to see what you do with the fireplace.
