The Big Reveal!

Unfortunately, when we arrived at the new house on Friday to officially move in, there wasn't a crowd of folks and a huge bus hiding the immaculately polished house where all of our personal possessions were perfectly organized and put away.  Rather, we arrived to workers still putting the finishing touches on the floorboards.  Appliances getting ready to install.  One bathroom with a door.  And boxes.  Lots of boxes.  Oh, and did I mention no hot water?  I could go on and on about things that we didn't have, but I would rather focus on the amazing changes that happened in the span of about 2 1/2 weeks! 

Here is the before of the front of the house.

Breakfast nook...kind of.  I don't have a great before picture of the breakfast nook.

Finally, the kitchen before....

So, we are still in the "moving in" process.  The house is littered with boxes and packing paper, but we are here.  Finally.  After 3 long months (6 for Austin) we can start putting our roots down here.

There are still some finishing touches that will be completed later in the week, but for the most part we are done! 

Thanks for sharing in our renovation! 

The End!
