Join Me in the Living Room (along with the cats!)

The Living Room. The first room we really remodeled in this house. After almost a year of strangely painted walls with an ugly stripe, a Popcorn ceiling with a water stain, no TV and a ripped up brown leather couch. We rarely spent any time in here. The idea for the living room came together […]

A New House Exterior

After living in this little house for six years, the exterior has finally been redone! The house was lined with aluminum siding when we bought it, and everything was painted white except the sad looking shutters which were way too small for the windows. The paint on the siding was flaking off and the shutters were […]

Around My Desk

I recently posted about the cat bedroom office laundry room Remodel, which happened in January. Here are some pictures I took the other day of my favorite corners of the room. My miniature shelf. I love collecting tiny things, and am happy to finally have a place to display them in an organized way. I found […]

Cat Bedroom Remodel

There was an addition put on to our house many years ago. It was originally  a hair salon that a lady ran out of the back of her house. But the last few years it has been the bedroom for the cats. They need their own bedroom at night because otherwise they race around the house […]

Cat Photos Friday #88- The Washer and Dryer

When we finally got a washer and dryer, I was interested to see what the cats thought about the new machines invading their favorite spot, the back porch. The boys were very cautious and took turns peeking through the cat door, until they were brave enough to come all the way out. After giving the […]

New Backyard

Our backyard has changed quite a bit this year.. When we got our new shed, we knew it was time to say goodbye to this rusty old guy. We found someone on Craigslist who was looking for scrap metal, and when he saw the metal shed, he said he was going to try and use it […]

The Adventures of a New Shed

We got a new shed.. One evening we randomly decided to make a trip to Lowes home improment, and for some reason we choose to go the the further away one which we hardly ever go to. We wandered outside and that’s when we spotted one of the display model sheds for sale. It was […]

Our House Anniversary

Two years ago today we moved into our house! We actually bought it at the end of June but it needed some work done before we could actually move in. The top photo was taken right after we made an offer on it, and the one below it was taken just a few months ago. […]

The Dining Room Makeover

Back in February we finally finished our dining room Before, it had been painted dark green. The color itself wasn’t too bad, but they used an ultra high gloss paint and  used a paintbrush to paint the ENTIRE wall. So you could see every brush stroke and it just looked messy. It looked like this […]

Our living room- Before and after!

We finally got our living room finished!  (Well except for hanging a few pictures) I thought I would share a few photos of how far its come since we first moved in. This is how it looked when we first moved in. Anytime we’d have guests over they would look at that stripe and say […]
