Pictures of the house!

A lot of you have been asking for these!  Luckily, my mom came to visit during my Spring Break two weeks ago and whipped us into shape.  During the first trimester, I was EXHAUSTED.  Add my long commute to work and I was not getting anything done in the house during the week.  Or the weekend!  I have some very scary "before" pics from when we first moved in.  And it pretty much stayed that way until Mom came to the rescue.  Those of you who know me well, know that I love to decorate.  I was just not feeling it when we first moved in!  Luckily, my mom helped pull it out of me and I started to enjoy myself.

BEFORE PICTURES (I warned you . . . you can click on the pictures to make them larger in a new window . . . not that you'd want to for the before ones!)

Living like this for almost two months was really putting me in a funk!

AFTER PICTURES (these you want to enlarge!) Ready to see the turn around?

Thank you, Mom, for working miracles! What I have to laugh at now is that the house doesn't look like this anymore because we're getting the wallpaper removed and the walls re-painted!  But I just look at these photos and know that soon it will all be back together!
