It's been a while!

Okay all my wonderful friends and family who keep telling me I need to update my blog here are only a few pictures I have taken while we have been unpacking and preparing for Christmas. We didn't host Christmas this year so we wouldn't have to stress too much about unpacking and I am very thankful we planning it that way. We were able to enjoy the holidays and have much needed family time. I think the kids loved having all of mom and dad's attention after having us preoccupied with this whole project.

Here is the dining room with my Christmas table cloth. The buffet you see in the corner we had at the old house. Lorna (Jeff's mom) had found that for us a long time ago. It works well. We are looking for a China cabinet to put on the wall opposite of the buffet eventually.
Here is part of the living room. To the right of this picture is our front door.
The table you were looking at in the previous picture is to the right of the Christmas tree and here is the rest of the room. We have huge windows in this room and we made the smaller when we were looking at the plans. We could have gone smaller yet, but I like the bright room. The green furniture is the beat up stuff from the old house and we hope to replace some day down the road.
Here is the computer desk and the shelves behind in the office. The shelves were planned for all the stuff you need for your office. There are 4 big file drawers under the shelves and I am only using 2 of them for files. I have alot of space for stuff and it sure if nice.


The next two photos are of the library. It looks totallly different with books in it and we don't have enough books to fill it. I guess we have to find the time to start reading more so we can collect more. The library is our of our favorite rooms for its uniqueness on how it turned out.


I have Christmas stuff down now and will start unpacking some of our everyday stuff. I left it all in boxes and just set up Christmas. I will try to be better about taking pictures and posting them for all of you.


I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe Holiday season! Happy New Year!
