5 Years Later...

5 years ago this week my husband and my 7 months pregnant self signed on the dotted line to buy this house.  Since then we've grown from 2 young newlyweds to 2 thirty-something parents of 3 little boys who renovated almost an entire house DIY style.  When I look back on it I can't quite believe we did it.

Here are some before's and afters of some the major renovations.

Kitchen:





Family Room Fireplace:



Living Room:











Master Closet IKEA hack:




Office:



Boys' Bathroom:









 Exterior:



It has been quite a ride.  I'm fairly certain the next 5 years will contain no pregnancies (truth!) and less renovations (big fat lie).
