This is the downstairs half bathroom before we made any changes.

We were able to remove the gold from every room except this one. That's because the shower door was gold and I didn't think it was worth all that much money to start changing stuff like that. We changed the lights so they would be centered, changed the towel bars and others like them, and the bathtub faucet. We also took changed the curtains and took down the wallpaper border.

This is the bathroom when we bought it.

Dan and I can actually share a closet and live in harmony! :-)

Finally got a bed big enough that we don't have to sleep like sardines! At least DAN is happy. Dan's parent bought us bedroom furniture for our housewarming!!! Isn't it just lovely???!!!

David, the previous owner, gave us this wonderful color, so we didn't paint this room. We did change the ceiling fan, because there wasn't enough light for my taste.

We changed the color to Macadamia. (Thanks Rach1) I guess you can't seebut we changed all the ceiling fans, the curtains, and I guess that's about it. We got new blinds for every room, and that was one of our bigger expenses. I got the curtains at Target. Love 'em!

Old Living Room.
This is one of the most dramatic changes we made.

TaDaa!

This is the old dining room. Getting the wallpaper off was a real job. My sister-in-law and mother-in-law helped us with the task. We changed the light and curtains, and the Fudge Truffle and Malted Milk paint colors really changed this room. When we put our table in, we didn't have much room left, but that's ok. You should have seen that table in our trailer! LOL!

The old laundry room was white, but we don't have any pictures. I am scared of color so I decided to experiment with the luandry room. I was pleased with the results.

THis is the kitchen now. It's hard to see the new color, but it's ROLL TIDE Red! Other things we did were change the kitchen faucet, the cabinet knobs, and the light in the breakfast nook. I want to add some sort of curtains to to bay window, and that's our next project.

This is the kitchen as we bought it.

Here are some other views of our sunroom that were taken by the previous owner! David and Ruby, if you're reading, thanks for your contribution to our blog!

This is one of my favorite rooms, the SUNROOM! I don't have a lot of time to spend in here, but it is very relaxing. It makes a wonderful place to read or take a nap. Right now, though, I don't like to open the blinds because we have about 3 dozen hummingbirds swarming around and sometimes they like to throw themselves into the window full speed ahead. Until they get migrated to Central America, we'll have to keep the blinds shut.

Okay everyone....I am determined to get this blog updated. I have the pictures of the house ready to upload. Between work, school, and tutoring, and my other typical daily life activities, updating this blog just doesn't carry enough priority. I suppose if he had more exciting news, it would be more fun. I'll get the pictures on shortly, hopefully in a few days!

This is the old floor! We needed something a little more hip! We found it!!!

Once I get more familiar with this blogging bit, I'll post other pictures too! :-)

I'm trying to figure out this blog. So far all I've been able to do in two days is FINALLY figure out I needed this Picasa software to get my pictures on here. Now we're rolling.
