Pics of the New Digs!

Ok, so I think my computer ate some of the pictures I took of the house, or I'm completely incompetent. But, somehow, about half of my pictures were downloaded, and now I just can't find them. So, this post is the basic look of the new house... I don't even have a picture of the house from the outside because the computer ate it... so be patient, I'll work on it :) But, here are some pictures so you get an idea of what things look like!

So, when you walk into the front door, you enter in to the "Formal Dining Room" which I have turned into the "Library/Piano/Beautiful Room". It's also the only room in the entire house (minus my room) that has carpet.... one of the only things I don't LOVE about the house.

After the "Formal Dining Room" you walk down the hall to the "Great Room." This is where our kitchen, dining room, and living room is. So, here's the kitchen--- I'm in LOVE with it! We have a disposal, a dishwasher, a normal size oven, a normal size stove, and an ISLAND!! Talk about a serious upgrade from the kitchen we had before :)

Another favorite feature: Enough counter space that I have my spices in a place where the Bubster can't reach them... ahh, bliss!


Next stop in the "Great Room" is our dining room. Nothing too fancy, but here it is!


The final step in the "Great Room" our Living Room!!! (With our brand new couches/tables/rug) We got a great deal over Labor Day and are SUPER excited about our pretty new stuff!!


The backyard is right off of the Living Room... we LOVE it and can't wait until it's cool enough for us to actually enjoy it! Is it November yet??? We have a hot tub and a thing called a "barzebo" which is basically a wet bar with stools under a gazebo. We'll be using it to serve our "mocktails" and party food when it's nice weather!


We also have GRASS, a lemon, lime, and grapefruit tree, and a cactus in the backyard. The Bubs is scared of the cactus (thankfully), points to it and says, "Cactus, ouchie!!" We are blessed to have such a smart kid :)


So, if you leave the "Great Room" and go back into the "Formal Dining Room" there's a hallway to the left which leads to all of the rooms. This is where the computer eating my pictures starts to really stink. I had a picture of my laundry room (because this is the first laundry room I've had in my house since I left for college in 2003... I'm ECSTATIC about it!), and a picture of "new baby's" room, but they are no where to be found... So anyway, in the hall, the first room you come up to is the Bubster's. Again, nothing fancy, but it works!

Next would be "new baby's" room, but that picture has disappeared, along with my picture of the kids/guest bathroom. Our bedroom is at the end of the hall and it is seriously a master SUITE. We have a ridiculously large closet, a nice sized room, and a LOVELY bathroom all included. Again, the pictures of my closet are gone (so you won't be able to experience the ginormity of it... sorry!) But the rest of the room is present! There's even enough room for our desk/computer-- so I can blog while The Child is sleeping, amazing!!!





So, this is the only picture of my closet that made it. It's our food storage wall. Seriously, this is just ONE wall in my massive closet.... LOVE IT!


So, there is the basic tour of my beautiful new house. Maybe when Brett gets home, he'll be able to find my lost pictures... but if not, I guess you'll just have to come visit us to see the real thing!
