Sneak Peek

T-16 days until we close on our new house

the anxiety is setting in....

moving with two toddlers seems so overwhelming

knowing that we are not moving back to our families

our home town

our life long friends...

But we have been so blessed in Wisconsin

We have amazing friends through our jobs and church

people offering to make meals, help paint, organize, pack

watch the girls

It is what has been keeping me sane!

So, with our further ado..

a few pictures of what is our soon to be house

A few things about the house
1.  there is no yard or driveway under all of that snow..the building company
will be coming back when the snow melts to do both of those things

2. the landscaping is totally on us we know nothing about plants/trees ha ha!
our goal over the next few months is to do some research on what grows best where

3. right now we only have one close neighbor but there are a total of six lots
on our little cul de  sac so four more will be going up when the lots sell

4. our house backs up to a wooded lot and a storm water drain off
the back yard slopes down right before the wooded area
this is going to make a great sledding hill in the winter! 

Alright..I just love the red front door

If our new house had not had a red door this would have been

on the top of my to do list! 

This is the kitchen

and we have some major plans for it! 

Starting with appliances which we ordered to match the microwave

and dishwasher the builders put in. We are painting and adding a tile back splash

before we actually move in and then will decide what else it needs

disregard the weird staging furniture and decorations

this is the living room with great vaulted ceilings

our only plans for the living room is to paint

I have not gotten a good picture of the dining room

but we also planning on painting and changing out the light fixture

The dining room has a slider door to the back yard

(and non existent patio :)

The bedrooms are bedrooms

We are planning on painting all of them

One will be ours

One will be the girls

and one will be a guest bedroom/office

bathrooms (2)

like the rest of the house..needs a little 

Heather and Russell personality thrown in the mix 

and a little color

I have plans for a VERY purple bathroom..

We also have an unfinished basement that we hope to

convert to another bedroom (someday)

a play room and a fun hang out room

We will be posting pictures of our projects and updates

Stay tuned!
