Our FIRST home.  We waited twelve years to buy a house, and slowly, it is becoming ours.  What started as white walls and boring spaces is slowly taking shape and starting to bloom.

But it’s not easy being married to MODERN when you are ECCLECTIC/COTTAGE/MID-CENTURY/modern…

So I try to please my Morgan, but things always end up more to my taste.  (Sorry, Love).  Anyhoo, here is how it came to us.

BEFORE

Here we are turning the key for the first time!

(Super-coolio action shot of Morgan vaulting into the foyer…)

The Kitchen, before the junk arrives….

(Still staged…that’s not our stuff…)

Here is the nice, clutter free staged family room…

Wow… I can’t believe that’s how it used to look… Here’s how it is after I got all up in it’s grill…

Grilling Porch.  Didn’t come with the grill.  Still waiting for that to happen!

(Nope, Brendan still hasn’t out grown pulling on his big bro..)

The Breakfast Corner Room

I’m working on a House tour…that’s my goal for this year.

Ha.  We’ll see… if the monkey’s stay in their cages…
