Before & After Pics!!!

This is where our apartment is...

Before...

The "living room"...we call it the library...

The hallway leading to the kitchen...

The kitchen with no oven...


The bathroom...

Our bedroom...


Andy filling in the holes before I paint...

Our bed for the 1st week...thanks Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Mike!

AFTER!!!

The library...


The hallway leading to the kitchen...


The kitchen, still without an oven...


The so much nicer and cleaner bathroom...

Our bedroom...


So our humble abode is finally livable! Yay! Paint really does work miracles!

We have a lot of stuff just piled up against the walls...we only have one closet in the apartment and no cupboards. But it works for now I guess.

We are thankful to have an apartment in a great location and SO CHEAP! We just figure that anywhere we live in the future will be a step up from this place. It sure has been a fun journey so far...and this place makes it even more interesting!

Way cool colors, Guys. It's a reminder that paint is an insta-clean solution. The walls in my home are starting to look like we have 5 little blind children feeling their way around after diving into the fridge every 15 minutes. Yeah. It's time to paint. Miss ya both!

I really have to hand it to you Ashley for being so willing to live in a "missionary" apartment. But your paint job has improved the whole thing so much. It looks really nice. You both have done a great job.

Love, P

Nice work guys. It really does look a lot nicer since you first moved in. You are such a good sport, Ashley.

is that a green cheetah print bedspread? it's sort of creepy, if you ask me!

Ashley said...

haha no, it has leaves on it. i don't think we would ever have a bedspread that had any kind of animal print on it. hmmm, maybe andrew would... haha
