More pics of our House...for all my screaming fans!!!

We are planning on re-doing the kitchen after Christmas. I am not a fan of the carpeted floors, or the apartment size kitchen. HOWEVER, I love the kitchen. It is my favorite room in the house. The fireplace is so cozy, and I just feel like cooking and listening to Frank Sinatra or Louis Armstrong. (Which I HAVE been doing by the way.)

The living room is mostly empty still. The furniture arrives Monday. :)

I love our bedroom too. The paint color turned out perfect. It still needs a few home-y touches but it's lovely all the same! The only thing that scares me are the mirrored closet doors. I have seriously covered my head at night when Josh is gone so that Bloody Mary doesn't get me. Yikes! The girl's room is empty also-except their bed. I am decorating it for their Christmas present. Wish me luck in my first decorating adventure! What more can be said about the play-room, it's a play room. The family room is Josh's favorite. He has some major childhood love of basements. He has always wanted a basement. It's full of unpacking clutter at the moment, and it has gorgeous 70's shades and a hillbilly light fixture, but I do love it too. It's got that relaxed basement feel that just makes you want to cuddle and watch movies all day! :)

Now you have seen our house. It's been a crazy two weeks of moving in! I had our little 1st ave. house all unpacked in 2 days-completely organized, and I had a new preemie baby just home from the hospital and on oxygen. I REALLY thought it would be the same thing this time...boy was I wrong. I learned that when you have a little house, and all of the boxes are RIGHT on top of you-you HAVE to unpack them to move around the room. But here, I have to walk what feels like 5 miles out to the garage to get just one box, and pack it all the way in, and back up the stairs. I keep laughing at myself. It's also SO much harder to keep clean. A bigger house just gets even messier and it takes more time to clean it! :) But we are happy and loving it here.

Josh is making me add more....He said "You forgot 4 bedrooms and a laundry room. It looks small." Well to that I say this-no I didn't. I left out 3 bedrooms and a laundry room. One of them is the office which is full of boxes. And the other two are basically empty...scattered with boxes. And we have a laundry room, and a second kitchen in the basement, and a food storage room as well. But I think if you would like to see every detail of the house then you will come over for a visit. I am not planning on taking pictures of every corner of the house. :) I love my husband. But he is very silly sometimes!
(Muah hunny. I love you!)
