Welcome to my home!
We purchased this home 4 years ago and have made so many changes. I love, love, love the location of our house (aside from being in MN) and the private 3 acre ravine lot! We are practically in town now, but still have the privacy of country life. :)

All the changes were bittersweet as this is the home that I grew up in. That being said, I needed to make some changes to transform this from my parent's home to my home. (Not to mention there were a few areas that were just a tad dated!)
This is definately a work in progress and it seems like the to do list never ends! Enjoy and look for the next round of changes coming soon!
the gray house looked tired and was just lost in the setting
Red is my favorite color. Now the house just pops weather it's summer or winter!

I LOVE my Pottery Barn duvet cover! I have some ideas for the bedside tables,
but these will work for now...
Master Bath

robin egg blue fixtures, blue swirl formica and carpet in the bathroom?!?!

fresh paint, tile, vanity and all new fixtures!
Boys Room
Jackson's room
I thought we'd have some fun and do some bright colors and stripes. (this room has already changed about 4 years later! I knew I would be tired of it and it's only paint!)
Girls Room
Olivia's room
Cute color blocks! Again, I knew this wouldn't last, but it was fun while she was my little girl! (this room has already changed too!)
Laundry / Craft Room
before
white walls and the ever popular lime green cabinets!
after
fresh white cabinets and a fun green/blue on the walls. Still no ceiling, but a girl can wish!
Yard
before
We had neglected the flower garden and it was in need of some work!
after
Much better! Now if only I had a green thumb...
