Before and Afters

Happy November!  I can't believe the year has flown by!  John and I were just talking about how this time last year we were not even engaged yet.  What a busy year we have had!

We have been busily working on the house and have accomplished a LOT!  Here are some before and afters.

This is when John and I (and his brother Teddy) went house hunting.  Notice the overgrown flower beds!


Thanks to John's WONDERFUL parents, we are now weed-free!  We can't wait for the spring to put in new mulch and flowers!


Our back porch area needed some cleaning up when we first moved in.  Notice the broken screen, dirty pavers, random blue tape, and even more weeds.


Our porch area is now clean, weed-free, mosquito-free and relaxing!

Our family room was a little overwhelming to me when we first saw it because of the large space.


We bought a beautiful and comfy microfiber sectional, a TV that John was very excited about, and TV stand that fits the room perfectly!



John and I are thankful that we live in Florida where there are *typically* no snow storms!  We are thinking of and praying for all of our friends and family in the Northeast who are enduring tons of snow and power outages!
