Hello!  I have been neglecting my blog–weird how once I get free time, I am so much less productive.  I’ve been on spring break and it’s been so nice!  I will add a general update soon (telling tales of Las Vegas), but this will be an update on the house.  We are done with painting.  We chose a green for the office, a blue for the guest bedroom, and a bold rust for the master bedroom.  I think they all came out really nicely.  The carpets are also done, and I have been working feverishly on trimming the rosebushes and other extremely overgrown plants.  We are officially moving on Tuesday, although we have been moving smaller items over already.  We’re really excited to get in there.  Here are some pictures…

This is the office before, immediately prior to painting.  The picture doesn’t do justice to the dirtiness of the walls and carpet.  The kid must have spilled soda on the walls and floors, and left it for 5 years.  I also found 2 boogers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is the office after, with new paint and carpeting.  This is Nik’s favorite room.  Oh, it has pretty new brushed silver outlet plates, too.  That was my doing.  Can’t wait to see it with furniture and decorations!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don’t yet have official after pictures of the master bedroom or guest bedroom, because we hadn’t finished putting the new faceplates up, and I wanted it to be as complete as possible before I took the after pictures.  But here is a “during” picture of the master bedroom.  The master bedroom is MY favorite paint choice.  I think it will look really nice with our dark bedroom furniture.  More to come…

Here, I am painting the master bedroom.  It has vaulted ceilings, so we had to get this very long extender arm to paint.  We were so exhausted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And some general pictures, which you may have already seen:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There we go!  I hope you all will come visit me soon :)  E-mail me if you want the new address and don’t have it yet.
