~Hellooooooo new house!!!~

We have been in our new house for about a month now... and are Loving it. It's a working progress.... we still have lots of work to do, and lots of purchases to make. Keep wanting to wait to post pictures until we are finished with it.... but then I realized that could be months.... probably years! So.... enough words. I've got a picture over load here (apologies now for the terrible picture taking.... not a strength of mine).

The tour:

 (View from the front door)

 (entryway table- $10 from a yard sale. gotta love good deals!)

 (Front room)

 (Dining table)

 (View from opposite end of front room)

 (walking out of front room)

 (... into the kitchen. Next purchase is bar stools and kitchen table)

 (down  hallway one we have....)

 (our sweet bright aqua laundry room)

 (with a message board... neccessity in this relationship)

 (We also have our P90x room---- good one, right?)

(The room is boring.... still is... but I added some of my sweet motivation signs. Really want to make one that says "Do your best, Forget the rest." Any other suggestions from my fellow P90x-ers? Erik rolls his eyes) 

 (We also have our extra bedroom. PINK!! Everyone come visit us!!

 (still down hallway 1- our guest bathroom!)

 (also has a door to enter hallway number two)

 (anyway.... back into the kitchen- looking to the back of the house)

 We've got the family room!

(Name that movie.... if you can we could probably be great friends-if we already aren't. I watch this on at least a weekly basis.... usually while cleaning)

 Erik's "man chair"- he felt it deserved it's own picture)

Looking from the opposite end of the room... back into the kitchen)

 (now.... down hallway 2- we have the opposite door to guest bathroom, a closet and....

 Erik's messy, unfinished office/ "man room"

 And our bedroom!

 Boring right??? Can't stand it!!! Have so many visions for this room.... but need to find sometime to put it together. Any suggestions?

 Best part of the house!!! How did we ever live without one??

 (Oakley peeking in to see what I was doing... but enjoying the cool weather at the same time)

 (Proof that even my fatty magoo Sugar can fit through that tiny door--- but yes, it does take her a little longer with her lovely lady lumps)

 (another angle of the room)

 (Into the bathroom)

 (We love our big stand-up shower!)

 (I love this jacuzzi tub even more!)

 (Aaaannddd.... we love that this is the view from our tub the most!!! Yep... Erik was just watching sports center while he showered and got ready for work.) 

 (The yard! Erik's project this weekend.... but we love it. And yes... New Mexico landscapes with rocks. Not my favorite... but that's okay!)

 (At least we have a park right behind our house. This is where Erik and the work boys play basketball every Tuesday night)

And obviously the pups love it all too!!!

So there it is! This is where we are now. As you can see.... Life is good!! And trust me.... we are very aware and so greatful for all of our blessings!!
