House pictures

Finally I am posting some pictures of the inside of our new house. It's only been 4 months since we moved in :) I still have quite a few projects I need to get done like repainting Makenzie and Austin's room. And hopefully in the spring we can finish our fence.

Our front yard-- obviously this picture was taken before winter came. Now we have the ugliest hill of snow in our front yard -- A month ago Mike made a gigantic snow slide for the kids. They loved it. Only problem is now it will probably take the next 4 months for it to melt.









Our backyard







This is our entryway. Straight ahead is the living room and then it leads to the kitchen/dining on the right. To the left through the french doors is Mike's office. To the immediate right are the stairs leading up. In the hallway is the door to the basement. I love the archway here-- there are so many archways in this house.








Hallway upstairs. Straight ahead is the kids' bathroom. Makenzie and Austin's rooms are at the end of this hall. They are a work in progress still though. To the left is the laundry room and I am standing in the master bedroom doorway.




Master bedroom




The hallway from our bedroom to bathroom. His and her closets on each side-- one of my favorite features :)






Master bath-- with his and her sinks-- one of Mike's favorite features


Back downstairs--- Mike's office. Funny story-- I had some cute pictures up on the wall behind his desk and Mike came in and just said-- "nope.. that's not going to work. My office can not be cute." So he found this awesome canvas of NYC at IKEA and I love the way it looks. Definitely more manly.



Living room -- don't mind the valentine's day decorations :)








Kitchen






Kitchen and dining room



Dining room


Straight ahead is the door to garage-- bathroom on left-- closet on right



This is our basement living area-- I should refer to it as Mike's room since he loves to spend a lot of time down here




More basement



There are 2 bedrooms down here, one storage room and one full bathroom.


This will be our guest room. Right now it is our computer/piano room.



Tyler's room. This is the room that flooded 3 days after we moved in b/c it is right next to the furnace/water heater room. I'm glad it's been put back together.
