Home Tour. The After. {part 3}

This is one of the first pictures I took of the outside of our home. The Landscaping has changed drastically since then {and will include the update with part II of the after pictures}. And obviously no curtains have been hung yet... looks kinda creepy.
Our beloved kitchen that opens up to the living room and dining room.
I spy a little TOT in her PJs. Yes. Our typical morning.
My favorite part? The backsplash.
Second? My Samsung stainless steel appliances. And the booze in the corner ;-)
This is definitely where the "Social Gatherings" take place
The back door here leads to our large deck {to be seen in part 4}
Our Pride and Joy for All to See
The wall color is so different. Bold. We were unsure when we painted it... but we ended up LOVING it!
Carson's favorite little corner

Hands down, our FAVORITE room in the house.
Nom Nom.

My dream has always been to be the mama that threw "dinner parties"
And I have made my "dream room" for it

Do you remember the before pictures? Complete gut


This will most likely be our future second nursery. Which makes me kinda sad because I love this room. There is also a canvas above the headboard now. And I'm too lazy to take a picture ;)





Of course our favorite room.
Kitchen
Living Room
1/2 bath downstairs
1/2 bath again- different view
Guest Room
E's Nursery
-------------------------------------------------
Rooms shown: Living room, Kitchen, Dining room, Half bath downstairs, Guest bedroom, and E's bedroom.
Rooms not shown {to be shown}: Family room, Deck, Office, Master bedroom, 2nd full bath, Master bath, overall Landscaping

Part One {home-buying process} Part Two {before pictures of rooms shown here}
-------------------------------------------------

So there you have it. Half of our home here. Our sweat and hard work was put in this home. And we have fallen in love with every piece, every room, and every change that we have made. We have completely made it our own, and it will always hold a very special meaning to us, as this was the home we first brought our Elliana home to. I can't wait to share the rest of our home as well :)

Love what you guys have done with your place, it looks great!
