The Grand Tour

OK, here it is. The new Bean house.  Everyone has been asking for pictures of our new place. My cousin and her family came to spend the night on Friday, so I took advantage and cleaned up as best as I could, and then snapped some pictures. There are still boxes around waiting for some projects to get done, but all in all, we are moved in.  This is going to be a lot of pictures!

This is home - you can see David's new Honda Pilot he bought


View from the front door. Family room to the left, dinning room on right, kitchen in the back




Turned around looking at the front door

Dinning room - it's still a work in process. We are looking for a hutch for this room. 
And everything else that doesn't have a place is shoved in here. 

My kitchen

We are going to add cabinets and a computer desk (similar to our last house) 
along that brown wall. And it will be painted a different color!

Downstairs bathroom

Looking up the stairs

View down from landing

View up from landing. Large linen closet straight ahead. 
Playroom is on the left, master bedroom on right.

Playroom until we finish the basement

Girls bathroom

Laundry room and Charlotte's room (I can't get these pictures to go right)

Down the hallway

Carmen and Aliza's room



Master bedroom - sorry it's not clean or anything fancy. I don't think it will ever be clean or fancy....


Master bath - the girls LOVE the jetted tub

Down to the basement - no other pictures. Just imagine cinder block and LOTS of unpacked boxes!



Our large deck and screened porch


They followed me while taking all these pictures. Aren't they so cute?!


The End... or uh.... The Beginning

There are a lot of things that need work on. The yard, painting, the basement, the kitchen cabinets, garage makeover and much more I'm sure will come. Now everyone needs to come visit us!!

Soooooo cute! I love it! Did you see this? http://www.u-createcrafts.com/2010/06/monogram-photo-walls.html It would be perfect in Carmen/Aliza's room!!! I think I might try it in the new place.

I'm glad our short-notice trip could be helpful for something! :) I always need guests-coming-over to help motivate me to clean up. You have a great house and like I said before, you're way more unpacked and decorated than we are! I'm impressed. I'm so happy to have you closer and hope we can hang out more often. Thanks again for letting us stay...it was perfect. (And we did buy a ton of furniture...barely made it home with it all!)

Very cute and it's fun to see how some parts of it looks so similar to what you had before, but then you have that great porch and back yard that will be so fun for the girls!

It looks like you're doing pretty well. . . you even have pictures on the wall! I haven't even gotten that far in some rooms of my house! It looks like a beautiful home and I hope you enjoy it.

It's beautiful! I'm so impressed that you already have pictures up on the walls. That usually takes us months, if not years.

Nice house, April! You've done a great job decorating, I am inspired. i really like that nice console table and vase on the floor by your front door. If you had that before, I never noticed!
