We bought our first house (pictured above) almost two months ago, it's all very exciting! It's on a dead end street & has an attic AND a basement (basements don't really exist back west). We have met several of our neighbors and are feeling very blessed by their generosity & kind words. This house feels like the 'right fit'!
I have dreams for this house. Dreams of babies growing school aged, friends being welcomed & wallpaper being removed. Dreams of love being shown to others & God being honored. Dreams of fond memories & wonderful days to remember.
God has shown me that these dreams start with him. They start with loving God unconditionally and without reserve. Praise God for all he has given us! And it is my prayer that we use it to glorify God with every brick, board & plaster wall he has given us!
' But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.' Joshua 24:15
Here are some fun before & after photos of our house. I love a good project, this house is definitely a 'good project'!!
The Kitchen
There are still a few details that need to be done, like painting the range hood, new counter tops & painting the trim (but I'm pretty sure you can't tell the trim hasn't been painted in these pics!).
Cabinets at the back door.
This is one of my favorite places now! It was my husband & Mom's idea to keep these cabinets open & I LOVE it!
Don't worry, there will be more fun house pics to come!
