The Big Reveal

After much blood, sweat, and tears, we are finally ready to reveal our home! Below are "before" and "after" pictures to show what we have done thus far. We are so thrilled with our home. We had a beautiful housewarming party this past weekend. We were so surprised when my parents showed up last week to help us get ready and celebrate with us. We have a ton of photos and I will have more posts coming soon.

BEFORE: Living room

AFTER: Living room - We put in a wood stove. We couldn't get our old couch in the small doorways, so we ordered furniture that could be assembled in the room.
