Before & After

Sorry it has taken so long for this post, but we have been busy! in the last 3 weeks we moved in and completely unpacked(in 3 days) and then started with the "improvements" So far we have finished the front room, dinning room and kitchen. Which has included paint(walls and ceilings because these people thought the room should be one giant blob of color, completely tearing down painting and putting back up the trim and baseboards, a couple new fans, and of course new candles and cute stuff ;). So here are the pictures, enjoy!
Kitchen Before (yes I would call that McDonalds yellow, and yes it is on the ceiling)

Kitchen After

Dinning Room before(what you can't see very well is that the walls are lime green)

It's a good thing Thad and I can see the potential in things huh?!
I don't know if I've mentioned yet everything else that has been going on. Thad is now teaching the 14-17 yr olds Sunday School Class, and I am teaching 6-8 yr olds in Primary. SO far so good. Thad also started his new project in Fillmore and commutes Monday & Wednesday but stays the night Tuesday and Thursday. He has started playing golf a little because the house the company rented for those who wanted to stay a couple nights a week is on a golf course and they get to golf for free. So he, at the "suggestions" of the bosses, has gone with them and picked it up pretty quickly.We bought him a set of clubs last night as an early birthday present. And the only news from my end is that I am going to be teaching dance again at the studio this year. I'm teaching a ballet, a jazz, and a ballet/tap combo, and seeing as I haven't danced in 6 years it should be quite interesting at first ;)Wish me luck!

Loves it! Yay for your new house! I have to come see it soon! Let's plan a date! Great job on the painting. I'm with Kelsie. I LOVE the green! And the white board is a great touch. I bet it's nice to get everything settled. Feeling like home now? :)
