moving day!!

YIPPPPEEE!! YAHOOOOO!!! I have moved into my house :) Its a beautiful thing to have a closet FULL of clothing and shoes. Who knew that things that "insignificant" could become so special when all you've had are the two plastic buckets of athletic clothes you have lived out of for the past three months. Carpet was laid on the 15th and we moved in three days later. My "little" brother is living across the hall from me...who knew that would be so fun?!? Our guest room is sitting empty, waiting for two sets of bunk beds. Ahh...so exciting. PLUS, my good buddy Gordon came into town to help on the house for a few months. Who knew that one set of hands would make such a difference?!? We are finished with the kitchen and have knocked a wall out of the laundry room. Needless to say, the house is starting to come together!! Here are a few PICTURES!!!


Originally painted the kitchen this color ONLY to realize it looked like a Mexican Restaurant, so...



We calmed it down a bit...now a nice sky blue :)
 
Dining Room PRE change :)

Dining Room AFTER paint and staging...hardwood coming SOOOOON :)

Cabinet at the end of the hallway 

Deep cleaning all the windows

My room :)





Painted the front door purple 

 My new hall light!


My roomate isn't so clean...I guess you can expect much out of a college kid. I'm gonna try and get ahold of his mother to see if she can do something about it...

JUST KIDDING...I LOVE living with my little brother. It's been a blast. He's the best!


 We have dishes!!


Gordon built my new pantry 

My gramps worked SO hard on my chevron wall. I LOVE it!!!

Woo. HUGE shout out to the grandparents who have literally been the driving force behind this project for the last two weeks. My pops has also been CRAZY helpful...working on plumbing...endlessly sanding. Man. If I've learned ONE THING from this project, it's that I am surrounded by the COOLEST, hardest working people EVER. Seriously...I dont think I would have even figured out how to get into the front door yet if it wasn't for them :)
