Finally...some After pictures!

So before you see all of the pictures...I had to share this one. Parker and Harper were helping Grandpa and Daddy install the sink and disposal! Without the central air here, the girls wear very limited clothing!

I don't have a before picture of this. It is the built in hutch in the dining room. Nothing changed on it, other than a fresh coat of paint on the inside. Notice my $48 light I scored from Lowes! It was the floor model on clearance!
OK, so this was the North side of the kitchen that you walked through to get to the dining room. The fridge would've set where the ladder is.
This is that wall now! Or lack there of! The kitchen is open to the dining room.
I still have to get some bar stools for the bar, and the floor trim still needs put down, but other than that...it's finished!
Here is a view from the dining room looking into the kitchen!
It is the same color, but the flash from the camera makes it look different.

Ok, so now you've had a sneak peak!

The kitchen window view...Before

The Kitchen window view...After
(we still have to hang the trim around the window and my curtains!) Another view from further back (in the computer room)

So, remember the big island thing from before? It had the basement steps under it and a second set of stairs that went upstairs. It also had that wall with a tiny door to the computer room area.

...Before

That same area After! No more basement steps. No more wall!

The basement entry door is now my closet for cleaning supplies and the trash can! In the bottom of the picture you can see counter top, at first it looked like part of the floor! It's not:) We decided to keep the ironing board that was built in. It is in the process of being refinished, so I didn't take a picture of it.

Here is a view of the fireplace. The sconces on the wall need to be put up. We replaced them with more modern ones.

The living room just got a new coat of paint! And some new furniture! The girls absolutely love the storage ottoman. They lay in it, hide in it, use it as a couch, use it as a stage, use it as a table. It has so many uses. Worth the money!

So, this room you could see into the porch. It had a tiny door that you could walk into the kitchen and really didn't serve a purpose.

Before...

After!

It is our computer room. I also have the girls table and chairs set up so they can watch TV and have a snack, since the dining room is away from the TV.

Harper was doing homework! So, as you can see, we've been busy! I'm hoping for the upstairs bathroom to be done before I go back to work! We also have to do a little work on the back porch area, but not a major remodel! Then...I think we'll take it easy for awhile!
