Befores and in the middles... some day we will have afters!

As you know, we've been working our hinders off (quite literally!)

Here are some before and in the middle pictures.

Hopefully by next week we will have some afters.

This is what our house looked like last August 3 weeks before we closed.

Quite over grown. Nasty roof.

In need of some TLC.

This picture was the first day we looked at the house.

In the same condition.

This picture shows an after of the yard. (MUCH BETTER!)

The new roof. (PERFECT!)

And the beginning of the soffit and fascia.

This is our (mine and Cody's) favorite part of the new fascia. This is what you see when you walk in/out of our front door. WE LOVE IT!

And for the living room.

This was what it looked like when we looked at and bought the house. (the sellers didn't move anything out)

This is an upclose of the closet (and my cute boy!)

And this shows the paneling we tore down, and the painted trim.

The doors are half way finished for the cupboard and I hope to get the closet doors and the front door done this week too!

Still a work in progress, but it is nice to see that we have indeed made progress.

(I forgot what terrible shape it was in when we bought it!)

(Please ignore the mess. With the toys exposed all day every day the kids can't help but pull them all out and I'm too tired to clean them up 700 more times before the doors are done!)
