Finally! A post again! :)

Well, we have been quite busy lately.... we put our house on the market and had a full price offer within two and a half weeks. Praise God! We scrambled to find a house to buy as we had one month till our closing date and we found a sweet little two story in a quaint town. Perfect. Settlement went through on both properties and we packed, hauled and unpacked all of our things. Shew! :) What a job! Then began the process of making it ours. You see, it had wall paper border in each of the three bedrooms. And a super TINY kitchen... with no dishwasher... except for yours truly. And one small bathroom, upstairs and through the master bedroom. Thankfully, it also had an extra dining room and well, who needs two? So we began the process of converting one of those rooms into our new kitchen. And we are very much still in the beginning stages but knowing my hubby, it won't be long! We plan to add a half bath and a laundry room in the existing small kitchen area. Our first project was to paint all the walls, trim and built-in cabinets in our dining room that we are keeping as a dining room and I am here today to post some pics!! :) Enjoy...
