New Beginnings

Here is the virutal tour of our house as it was in the beginnning. This room is what used to be the previous owners' school rooms since they home schooled their kids.  This has been cleaned up and is now the room that Jeremy and Andrew share until we can get the downstairs renovated. 

 This is Jonah cleaning what is mine and Mundy's bathroom.  I just can't share one with the boys so they use the other upstairs bathroom and the one downstairs.  This bathroom has a whole ocean motif going on, but one day it will change.  It's very dark as all the walls and the ceiling were painted a dark blue and I'm not a huge fan of ocean motifs.

We put the kids to work cleaning shelves.  Mundy had to paint several of the kitchen cabinets on the inside because it was raw wood and the like.  No liners or paint and the shelves were pretty dirty.

This pic and the one above were taken in the kitchen.  We had stuff everywhere!

 This is our living room and our temporary family room until we get the downstairs situated.

 Another shot of the kitchen.

 This room is mine and Mundy's.  The oldest daughter was in it and had a thing for horses.  Eventually we will be doing this,but it will probably one of the last.  This house has no master bedroom/bath which I miss immensly.  One day we will change it all, but I'm sure it will be a while yet.

  this is Jonah's room.  It has a lot Disney characters on the walls.  I was hoping he would last longer in it the room but he feels like he is too old for it already.  I did warn him that it would be a while before we could get around to painting it.

 This is what will eventually become our family room.  This is also where our stove is.  It's something different to have to build fires for heat.  WE've got to find a better way to circulate it through the house, but I'm sure we will get it figured out.

This is the toy room.  Somebody had a thing for Garfield and it is present in nearly every room in the house.  It's kind of nice to not have toys all over the floor of the living room anymore nor in the boys' rooms.  Although I wish I could say the same thing about their clothes.

This is what we call our garage room.  Since we are now sans a garage this is what we are using until we can get one built or even a shed or something.

 this is the boys bathroom downstairs.  What did I tell you about the Garfield infatuation.  The mirror even has Garfield on it.

Yet another Garfield even in the pantry.  So weird.  I love having this big pantry though.  It's better then having to stash food storage under beds and in our closets.
