Our House :]

Home sweet home....We had a lot of struggles getting the house we bought.
We put our first offer on our little Ogden home in October 2008....We did not receive the keys until February 3rd 2009! I'm just really thankful we both had a place to live while we were waiting. This is the first official picture of our "New Home"




Our house has 4 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, 2 Family Rooms (with a fireplace in each :] ) A laundry room, and of coarse a kitchen. We also have a 2 (small) Car garage, an RV pad, and a descent sized yard.

A lot of work had to be done to the house when we first bought it, with much thanks to Norris!! We completely painted the upstairs and replaced all the floors. Remodeled the kitchen and bathroom. and fixed a whole lot of loose ends. It was a lot of work but completely worth it! I absolutely love my house now! Plus, surprising it was one of the nicest houses we looked at in our price range. I would love a huge brand new house, someday. We don't plan on staying in this house forever but with just the two of us we fit perfectly on the top floor. We use the spare bedroom as an office/craft room which works out nicely I think.


This is my front door display for the month of July...I really want to get a holiday tree or something, but can't afford it right now...so I will decorate with holiday pictures...looks pretty cute I think.


Here is the kitchen before & after....I LOVE the wood floors! p.s. Our fridge...cost us $20!


Here is the living room before paint and carpet...I don't have a lot of "after" pictures...they are soon to come...we painted all the walls a tan color, did the trimming ivory, and have a tan colored carpet. The picture on the right is my fireplace display...since this photo I've added some more pictures and candles.


This is the bathroom in progress---NEW TILE :O and the bathroom decorations...the shower curtain, toothbrush holder and garbage can all match :]


here is the master bedroom...notice the hideous gold stars on the ceiling, it was such a pain to paint over them! We have decorated this room in browns and golds :] sounds odd...but actually turned out really cute! The furniture all matches and everything.

The saying over the bed, in case you can't read it says "Goodnight my love, goodnight my everything."




Here is the craft room/office...this is where I spend most of my time. The monkey stuff was actually supposed to go in my bathroom, but it looked so cute on my desk so I left it there!

We have a basement too, but we haven't done much with it. Downstairs is David's weight set and some random storage items. We will fix it up more as we need it... (when the kids come)
