17 updates

As if we weren't busy enough fixing up our side.... we started our tenants side when he went on vacation last week. We ended up redoing a lot more than we anticipated; I got a little excited tearing off the wallpaper... it only took me 1 hour to de-wallpaper a bathroom, bedroom and the kitchen!!! It was so easy, but after it was off that meant we had to finish all the rooms! I guess the pictures say it better than words but we finished the dinning room, kitchen, a bedroom and both bathrooms IN ONLY 10 DAYS!!!.... here they are.

the kitchen colors... turned out great! He had wood paneling on the bottom half so we painted it... I love it!

Dining room, very neutral... similar to ours.

Main floor 1/2 bathroom... had to work with the yellow tiles.

Upstairs room, same blue as the bathroom, also used in our bedroom.

Upstairs bathroom... ewwww the teal tile was a challenge for me! Turned out very bold!
That is all for now! Back to our side for a while.

one more finished!

The floors are finished and we are back in our house! Unfortunately I have currently lost my camera cord to put photos on the blog. I will post a photo when I find the cord, but they look great!! Kyle did such a great job and we are happy to be back home! (until we redo the kitchen... next major project)
Hope everyone had a Happy Easter! We had a great weekend, it was 70's and sunny every day! Friday night we went to the Celtics with friends Sarah and Alex, saturday we enjoyed the MI State game and played games and Sunday went to Uncle Jerry and Aunt Ellen's for Easter dinner!
