here is the kitchen. the cabinets are all painted and the hardware is new. the semi-circle handles were a beast to put on but their straight and tight. that stove went crap on us so we have a different one in there now but i guess you cant tell from the pic. also the computer is still in the same spot. im writing this blog from it RIGHT NOW! were going to move it as soon as we paint my desk or move ranias computer hutch in from my old place.

this is our front room looking out from the kitchen. it was a mess like this for a while. we had problems with Build Direct getting out flooring so we lived like this for about a month...i think. rania might have to correct me on this. those are doors i painted in the windows in case you were wondering.

here is out beedroom, or it has been for a while. we just finished the floor in kaileys room a few weeks ago so kailey is in her own room now. it was fun for a while but it i was glad to see her go (down the hall)and she felt the same too.

here is the hallway bathroom. dad and i took the tile out and the toilet. we wanna take the bars out of the shower but that might make the tile underneath (how do you spell underneath?) so were not sure waht to do.

here is the kitchen floor...that wall is down now so it really opened the room up.

this is the hallway bath. a really old lady lived here so thats why there are stablizing bars in the shower. were not going to redo the tile in there so well probably just leave em....for now. right now the toilets out and the tile is gone too. well get to it in a week or two.

this is the kitchen. you can see where water has done some damage so all the tile came loose. i was extremely sore for the week while i was breaking it up. we ended up paying 1-800-Got Junk to come get it and the carpet.

heres the front door and entry. all the brown tile is up near the door there and that grey carpet too. the banister is still brown though.

this was easier to take down than rip up the tile. now in its place is just painted wall where the rock was. the fireplace is still there though. oh, and the blinds are gone too. in fact we just got some yesterday and ill probably be putting them up today.

here is the hallway from the entry to the bedrooms. pretty boring.

here is the master bedroom. thats the closet door there and the bathroom is just to its left.

this is just us a few weeks before the big day. i just thought id put it up too.
