A Long Time Coming

Well, I apologize for how long it has taken for me to get pictures up here of our new house. We have been putting a ton of work into it, and it is finally to a point where it looks like home. So, without further delay, I now present to you the new Freckleton Residence:

These are the pictures I took on the day we first walked through it with our Realtor. Little did I know when I was taking these, they would be the first pictures of our home. I never got the chance to take better ones before we started working on it.
Formal Living Room



Family Room


Master Bedroom

Spare Room

Spare Bathroom

The first night we had keys, Levi and Taylor ripped up all the carpet, and Katie and I began patching up all the holes and we spent the next few days getting ready for paint:









 One of the rooms had a million tiny push-pin holes






And then we spent nearly 4 weeks painting EVERYTHING! There were several times Levi and I believed we had taken on too much. It was a little overwhelming:






And then, the Friday before we were supposed to get our carpet in, Levi surprised me and had the carpet put in early. We were able to finally move into our home. Now we are onto the fun part of getting everything put in it's place. I think that will be a lifelong project:










Thanks to all our families for the hours they spent helping us. We couldn't have done it without you!
