Things have settled down now and I have been able to put some things away enough that I can take some pictures of the new place. (Just realized I forgot to get one of outside of the house. Oops!)
Moving was a bit frantic, as time was tricky, with work, kids school, and cleaning/painting the new place. I was able to get the main rooms painted before we moved--thank heavens! Here are a few (not so great) pictures:
Kitchen:
Not as big as the one in Blackfoot, but MUCH, MUCH bigger than where we left.
Reading Room:
No tv, but comfy chairs and peace and quiet--maybe.
My bedroom:
Grey walls with a deep purple above the trim. I really like how it looks. Going to do a bit more to decorate, but not positive what I want to do yet.
Kyler Kid's Room:
Two walls are denim blue and the other two are a lighter blue. He would like to have some green in there too, but I haven't done anything with it yet. Working on getting it cleaned and organized still.
Jake the Snake's Room:
Jake's room is in the basement, but he has plenty of daylight with the four big windows in there. The two beds are built in, which is fun. It has a closet under the stairs that Jake is using for our library. He still has some cleaning and organizing to do too.
Spare Room:
In the basement and has these great bunk beds and built in shelves, but alas, there are not windows in there. We aren't comfortable calling it a bedroom without windows. True is it close to the stairs and the basement door, but we will avoid using it as a bedroom if we can.
Toy Room:
As you can tell by the mess of toys, this is the toy room. We have some cleaning and organizing to do here also. It isn't a great priority yet either, as this is down in the basement and out-of-sight, out-of-mind.
Exercise Room:
It is a big room with lots of open space. Russ has his equipment up, but he still needs to decide what the placement will be.
T.V. Room:
Big open room with lots of windows. The door to the patio is working, which is a bummer, but it is nice to have so much room. The t.v. doesn't have to be so loud so you can hear it over the dishwasher, people, and general home sounds.
Zoey's Room:
Z wanted a pink on pink room, but that was too much pink for mommy. So two walls are pink and two are white. It looks cute. But mommy had gotten Z some pink curtains, and now everything is pink. Mommy might have to talk to Aunt Audrey or Aunt Heather about sewing a liner to them. But it is a girls room!
I still need to paint my craft room, the entry way, hallway, and bathrooms; but they aren't critical to have done right now. This move has been good because we have gotten out some of the stuff we have from Japan, and I hope to put out more. I realized that we hadn't seen most of it since we moved to Blackfoot, just after Kyler was born--almost 7 years ago! Time to get it out. I will get more pics of the rest when stuff has been shifted around more.
