underlining was there!

It didn't transfer the underline! I swear it was underlined while I was typing....I'm not crazy!

our house as it is today :)

I don't know how to get this to stop underlining so I'm just going to post this! I decided to put up new pictures of our house. It feels like not much has changed since I posted last and the parts that have changed are in a worse state! But I hope you enjoy looking at where our house is at in the process! The next step for the living room is to buy curtains...they will be about the color of the sheet that is now giving us privacy in the living room. The blue couch is temporary. It is our friend Daniel's who is living with us for a bit...
This is the vanity in the bathroom - I painted the walls taupe and didn't like it in the bathroom so I painted the walls again. I'll post those pictures with the next round...
I picked out this shower curtain - I thought it was fun and cute.
This is the part of the house that looks worse...Ben tool out a whole wall so there is drywall dust EVERYWHERE! We are working at getting the last of the wallpaper off the wall that is on the left side of this picture. Once that is done then we will texture the wall (the drywall under the wallpaper wasn't textured at all) and then paint! Right now the idea is to paint the walls orange. That pretty fall-like orange.
This is our beloved kitchen....The plans for this is to leave to doors off (we were going to paint all the cabinets and doors and put them back on with new hinges (the old ones were no good) but we decided that within the next few years we would like to completely gut the kitchen so it seemed pointless to us to buy new hardware just for a couple years and go through the trouble of sanding and painting all the cabinets. So I am thinking I will paint the inside and outside of the cabinets that are on the wall right now and then paint the walls and let it be until we redo everything.
This is our dining room - one of my favorite parts of this house is my fruit bowl - I love walking into the room and seeing fresh fruit - I love the colors and the feeling of seeing freshness right there on my table :)
So that is it - wow the underlining came back...I thought I got rid of it...oh well! I just went to Pottery Barn and Crate and Barrel with Miranda to spend the last of the wedding gift cards...so I will be posting pictures of the great decorations we got there! I am definitely more excited about my house now! Thanks Miranda! I am going to paint more in the bathroom now...we have goals of what we want done by Thanksgiving so expect some more pictures by Thanksgiving!

Love to you all :)
