A glimpse of what we did this whole summer...

As many of you know we purchased a home in Redmond this past June and worked the entire summer during the weeks and some weekends transforming it into our home. We moved in beginning of September and its taken time to unload/organize and decorate {and were not done yet}. We cant thank my dad enough for all the hard work and creativity he put into this house for us and we feel so blessed to even call this place our home.

To give you a little idea of what we had to work with I have put some before/after pictures for you to see. Of course it looks better in person and we hope to one day have some open houses but for now I hope pictures will do. {The little old lady we bought it from took care of this house and kept it in pristine condition, it just was a bit dated}

{the veiw from the front door BEFORE}{AFTER}

{This is what the kitchen looked like before}

{Another view from the front door-we took down that wall and took out the bedroom}

{Our new dining room}{Before}{After}{Before- I used that wall divider as our headboard-pictures to come}
{AFTER- from a closet to our little bar area}

{Hall Way BEFORE-DARK}

{AFTER-All Bright}{Hall Bathrom BEFORE}{AFTER}{Coopers Bedroom Before-Luckily this was the only room with wallpaper}{AFTER-its not all done yet}{View BEFORE}

{AFTER}{BEFORE-in the deal I asked for those chairs}

{AFTER-made the closet into my little office/craft area and then the area for Cooper to play}

{We took out those walls and changed the kitchen just a bit}
