Updates on things we did in our house.

When we got our home, we had an old dresser that came with it, in the bathroom. It was the only place for towels. So after it is breaking apart, we decided to make it a closet. So we took a short cut and got a plastic shelf and built a door around it. The shelf came in boxes that Justin cut for the kids into bus shapes! They had a BLAST with them!

Here is the dresser that we stuck in the hall while we were setting up the shelves. I hear Tristan calling "come find me!" and found him here! Of course Alyssa wanted in too!

And here is my foyer. We are working on. We are going to do the floors this spring when we can open up the doors again. We have them completely shut off for the winter. We will have to replace the door in front here. The cold cracked it right in the middle! Anyways. Here is a bit of our old furniture set up.

And our new chandalier that we got on clearance at Lowes. Justin LOVES it. It is not my style but he liked it a ton so hey, it is his house too. He can have it.

I enjoyed your pictures and those children are so adorable. It will be worth all you are going through when you get your home done. Chandalier looks great. You are right hubby should also have what he wants. May God's riches and best be yours in 2008! rilda *U*
