Tired

As you can tell by this picture we are very tired from this house! So are my parents because they work on it all day while we are at work. I took this picture of Aaron on a Sunday afternoon. He was out cold and looked so comfortable under the big comforter.

One Month of Owning House! (AKA Week Four)

Here is our Kitchen. We have a few of the cabinets up, the other were still drying. If you notice we also have green walls, and tile on the floor, and on the backsplash.



Here is our guest bath with the tile in, and also the countertops (marble) ;) and finished cabinets. The only thing they need is the knobs.



Here is the master bedroom with carpet and finished paint. All of the bedrooms are completely done except for changing our lights.



Here is one of the other bedrooms with carpet and finished paint.



Here is the entry way with tile and paint.



Dining room with green paint. Trim is done now, but wasn't done yet when I took this picture.



Here is our Den with the carpet in. Aaron loves it. It is done except changing out the fan, and getting a wood burning stove put in. Also all that stuff leaning on the fireplace is just junk.

Week Three of Owning House!!

Well we got a lot done! But we still have a lot more to go!



Here is the master bedroom. We still hadn't done the edging when I took these.


Here is just down the hallway.


Here is one of the bedrooms.


Here is the bathtub. We got it sprayed with this special paint white, instead of the nasty gold color.


Here is the living room painted.


And these are our new countertops for the kitchen! They look great! We haven't put the sink in yet. We've been having trouble finding one that will fit, but we think we finally got it!

Week Two of Owning House

Here is week three of owning the house! IT is still a work in progess. Next we will probably start painting! We still have to pick out tile, and carpet. I think we pretty much have them figured out though!


This is the kitchen after my dad, Brother Stegall, and Aaron have stripped it. It is now stained too, but I don't have a picture of that yet.


Here is the hallway and my mom cleaning the wall towards the end. (she'd kill me if she knew I put this on here.)


Here is one of the finished walls in the garage.


Here is my dad in the finished garage. He is working so hard!


Bathroom after they ripped out the countertop and sink, and stripped the cabinets.


Here is the entry way after being textured. Ready to paint next!


Here is the dining room all textured and ready to paint.


This is the master bedroom; ready to paint.


Here is the living room with the pile of carpet out of it. That is our new dishwasher sitting over there if you were wondering.

Week One of Owning House

You will all have to scroll down to the before pictures to compare between now and then. These look better, but still A LOT of progress to go!


This is the carpet piled up in the living room before we hauled it off.

The Dining Room after we took our all the paneling and wall paper.

This is Aaron in the entry way tearing up paneling.

This is the kitchen after cleaning, but before stripping and restaining them.

Halloween 2008

At the bank we have a competition between all the branches for Halloween. Our theme was Batman. So we all dressed up like characters from Batman. I was Catwoman. We had the Joker, Robin, Batman, Harliquin (Joker's Assistant), Poisen Ivy, Pengiun, Bat girl and Alfred. It was really fun. We also had the whole bank decorated with bats hanging from the ceiling, a fog machine, and a bat signal. I even made a cd of different batman soundtracks and we played it all day. Oh and by the way...the person playing Robin is a girl. She just had a wig on.
