Our American Dream :)

i suck at life.  i have had my house for almost 6 months, and i am JUST now posting pics. lol.  what'd ya gonna do?!  in all fairness, we have only been living in it for 3 months.  we gutted the whole place before we moved in.  it was a HUGE project, but it was WELL worth it!  i love that almost everything i hand-picked.  we replaced: the doors, the floors, painted the entire inside, completely remodeled the bathrooms, tore walls down, put walls up...and these are just a FEW of the things.  needless to say, it was fun, but extremely exhausting.  okay...enough talking.  now for the pictures...

okay, but before the grand tour...i must say.  this house was in good condition when we bought it, BUT it was nasty...i really don't think these people ever cleaned a day in their lives.  nice people...but they didn't clean...ewwwww....i am not willing to show pix of the nastiness because it's embarrassing, even though i didn't make the mess. yuck.


Here are some before and after pics.

I still don't have pictures of our bedroom, because....honestly?! it's messy, and i am not gonna show you that, so you will have to wait until after i clean it. AND  David's office is still in the process of being decorated.  i am going with a math theme, so i have to do lots of research and make a lot of stuff.  you'd be surprised how hard it is to find a life-sized abacus :) ...looks like i'll be making that!  ...we also have another small bedroom, but it's not decorated yet either so...sorry :(  

i realized i have no pics of the backyard and  the front yard.  that's silly.  i will have to make sure and take some, but it's dark at the moment, so maybe this weekend! :)  thanks for stopping by and checking out our house.  you should really stop by and visit...we LOVE visitors!

You did a really great job decorating! You'll have to come help me someday when we have our own house (in like 10 years or so!). I don't know how to do stuff like that!
