Hey yall,
In honor of our 1-year anniversary of being in out first home coming this month, I wanted to share before and after pictures of where we started and where we are now. Of course, because we are always on the go, there have even been changes since these pictures were taken! But, hope you all enjoy a little glimpse into our constant-work-in-progress!
Before:
The “weird” front entry room that no one knew what to do with.
Our first home! Needed lots of love.
Mr. R opening the door for the first time…
Poor little yard… Apparently we made an offer on the house before the seller had time to fix it up.
LOVE the deck. It’s since been stained an orange color I can’t wait to get rid of. But, in our first year, this deck has already seen it’s fair share of patio dinners and parties!

Here’s our strange split level
The open living / dining / kitchen area.
Different view of the kitchen. Big, but maybe too open
Maddie showing off our Houswarming Gift from Jess and Samy!
Our little crows that sit on the front porch
After:
We figured out a use for the weird front room!
Dining room makeover
Hallway wall decor.
Entry way wall decor… don’t mind the step ladder in the corner 😉
Guest bathroom downstairs
Small living room… which has since gotten a facelift and some blinds instead of these curtains
Front yard LANDSCAPING that Mr. R and his dad did. Love the rocks!
Another view of the rocks
Wall art / photo collage
Master bedroom + cat
My awesome vanity / makeup desk that Mr. R built me for Valentine’s Day!
- Kitchen upgrades: added an island and a pot rack
New grill! Has been used so many times this summer!
That’s all, folks! Hope you enjoyed the tour!
