"Before" Pics

Living Room/Entrance showing fire place.  It will stay, but a new insert is going in.  New front door, too.

 We closed on our new house in Strafford mid-October.  That weekend, before the work started, I took "before" pictures.  I am sure that after it's all done, I will be so glad I did.  In fact, even though at this point it's only half done, I am glad I did!  We will be removing all wallpaper and painting throughout. 

Kitchen.  We'll be putting in tile, new counter tops, and appliances.

Living Room.  We'll be putting in hardwood. (Elise finds her way into a lot of the "before" pics!)

Hallway will also be hardwood.

Girls bath.  We'll be putting in new tile, vanity top, and light fixture.

Elise's room.  Yes, that is linoleum, in a bedroom.  We'll be putting in a new light fixture and carpet.

Erin's room.  New carpet will be going in and a new light fixture.

Master bedroom.  We'll put in carpet, take down the wallpaper border, and put in a new light fixture.

Master Bath.  Putting in tile, vanity top, new toilet and light fixtures.

Dining room (and laundry room in background, goes out to the garage).  We'll be tiling all and putting in a new light fixture.  New back door, too.

Bonus room was added on later and not done right.  It's going to be converted back to garage space and will house Sean's weight equipment.

Back yard (YAY FOR A FENCE!).  Deck will be redone, and yard will be resowed with seed.  There used to be a pool there.

Front yard.  I am sure Sean has some great landscaping ideas up his sleeves.

If everything goes according to plan, we'll be moved in (with just a few more projects left to do that can be done while we live there) before Christmas!  We are all so excited to officially become Strafford residents!  Miss Erin is even starting her new daycare on Tuesday!
