Pictures of our New House

My sister Sally has requested pictures of our new house and I finally am getting around to taking pictures. We have been working on our yard all summer and have the first phase done. Next summer there are more plans. These pictures are of the first floor. When the Talia's and Tucker's bedrooms are somewhat clean I will post more pictures.


















This is the view when you first walk in the front door. Unfortunately you can see the kitchen sink. Luckily the sink is deep so that I can hide the dirty dishes pretty well.


















This the living room and I love having a room in the house that stays somewhat clean for when company visits. My Halloween Decorations are up! Fall is definitely here!










This is the formal dining room. We don't eat in here very much because there is carpet and I am afraid to ruin the carpet. We are hoping to put hardwoods in eventually. I love having my piano is my living room/dining room. It will be better for piano lessons. I am going to start teaching again next week. With soccer and school starting none of my students returned but I have 3 new ones starting next week.















The kitchen is bigger but the amount of cupboard space decreased. I should probably just get rid of some kitchen stuff.



The 2 pictures below are of the family room and notice Trent's favorite thing the room - the big screen TV. Actually it is probably Tucker's and Talia's favorite thing also.






Here are pictures of the backyard. Our yard is quite a bit smaller but we do back to green space which is quite nice. We have no neighbors in the back and it is beautiful!

Thanks for the pictures Trina! Your house is beatiful! I love all the furniture and decorations. I just have to tell myself that someday when I don't have toddlers I can have a few more nice things! I liked the paint in the living room...

WOW! You moved! Is the house still in Tigard? Big changes, though I noticed there is still a boat in the driveway. I guess some things can never change. Good to see your happy family!
