More House Pics...

We've had a busy weekend! No rest or relaxing when you move into a house. Friday night we went to the Plano Balloon festival. It hasn't rained here in months, months and somehow a storm blew in Friday night so no balloons could take off. I was so bummed but happy to have some rain. We just had a very light rain but had some lightning so pretty much the event was canceled Friday night. Sat we spent ALL day going to the storage unit and unpacking some things we hadn't seen for almost a YEAR! Gracie couldn't wait to get her hands on her wagon. GG an Pop helped again all day long hanging stuff and finding a place for stuff. Here are some new pics... It's starting to look more like a house!

                Friday we got grass! I also want to snap a few of our trees. Our house is over 30 years old so the trees are just gorgeous. Kelly said he's NEVER lived in a house with trees so I just had to take a few to show off how big and pretty they are. 






Here's some more of Kelly's room. He finally has  place for the beer mugs he collects. 
This is the ginormous tree we have on the side of the house. The picture does not do it justice. It's' just huge!! We had some major trimming done on it. This side patio is off of Kelly's room.

Show's you the 'man cave' leads into the dining room and the kitchen. Kelly said no toddlers/tiaras allowed in his man room!!


Our bedroom. We got some more things hung up including my favorite dog picture! Just looks like Jack up there on the bed curled up :)


Playroom then kitchen



Now G's room....




Isn't it so cute! She really likes it! GG worked so hard and helped do pretty much all of it. She has the same furniture just changed a little. I so wanted to keep her black/white/pink motif and GG did great!! At first I was going to switch her to a double bed but at the last minute changed my mind. She's so happy in her daybed and now she has more floor space in her room. Everything turned out perfect. See her tiny closet?? So tiny there's not even a light! ha!! Luckily she does have shelves on top and a shelving unit inside that you can't see but boy is it small! I added a double bar and that helps for clothes since their still small clothes :)


Lastly, entry way and dining room. We have a small dining room smack in the center of the house. The good thing is that you can get to the kitchen or other living room areas so its easy to move around. Well, that's it for now. We've done a lot in just a week!!

Looks good Shannon!! Love the dog photo. And love Jack laying on Gracie's floor. That is so something Jake would do!

It looks awesome Shannon!! I can't believe how much you've decorated and hung stuff on the walls already. I love Kelly's man cave and Gracie's playroom :) I bet you can do a lot of space maximizing in your closets (Container Store would be awesome for that!). SO glad y'all are settled in and happy :) We should do a KD swim playdate at your house next summer!
