Making a House a Home

We love our house so much, but we've been working hard, trying to make it our own. Significant advances have been made, but we've got a long way to go! We hear "the list" will never end. Here are a few updated photos of our home.

Our bedroom...we had new carpet put in the bedrooms. Very kooshy!


Freshly painted kitchen, we had to take the baseboards off in order to fit the wood floors .





The dining room, sans base boards and dining room table. Check out Kevin's floors! He had to use the pneumatic nailer, completely foreign to him. But he's a quick learner!

No, I am not soaking my feet in this gorgeous picture. I'm getting ready to paint the window trim!

There are many loooong days and late nights. We are trying to get as ready as possible for the 4th of July, when the Nyquist clan comes over.




Many people ask what our backyard looks like. We actually have a little forest that backs up to our property. It's not an actual preserve, but there are enough trees to produce deer and coyotes.
