our home

THE WEBER HOUSEHOLD!!!
So this is our cute house!!!!



It fits us perfectly........We do have alot of work to do on it, but since Jon and i had be looking for a house we decided that this is the house that we would grow old together in.......We both feel like if we are going to put a lot of work on a house we want to show it off.....the only difference we have is how fast to do it....cuz i want it done now and Jon has a lot to work to do in different rooms. So im learning to be patient. He has been so good to me, he lets me hang stuff up that we are going to have to take back down to re due those rooms or paint. I like my stuff to be in order and pretty to show off!!!! He says it looks lived in :)
What i love about our house is that its ours, its in the country......if you have never lived in the country you will have no clue what im talking about, but if you have.......if you stand out side and just listen, you hear nothing!!!!! I love it!!!!! We have a beautiful back yard,



if you call it that we have a very over grown garden of beautiful flowers 7 apple trees, 3 pear trees, grape vines, and some random things that i dont have a clue it is!!! My second favorite is the living room....its huge!
BEFORE (do you love the floral curtains and plaid strips) AFTER


do you like the baby gate that is up now!!!! A must have when your Godson is Roman :) & our toy area

We are repainting the shelves and getting rid of the plaid wall paper still so ignore that

We like to entertain and it fits our needs perfect!!! We can seat 10-12 people comfortably! and still have room for a toy corner and all my DVDs and pretty pictures and stuff!!!!! Jon might tell you that his favorite is his 3 car garage to put all his stuff in for work or his own driveway that drives right up to it separate from the house. or maybe that we have a HUGE 2 1/2 acres for his future dogs to play in!!!!
This is our Kitchen....this ALL is getting redone!!!!!! My dad has this program were you can put all your measurements in from the rooms and it will give you a walk through of what your doing to remodel!!! We are very bless from my parents to his parents they are willing to help when ever!!! My dad besides helping he making our new cupboards for our kitchen AWESOME!!!!They are not cheap to buy!!!!
BEFORE and AFTER (there really is no after yet, to be continued!!!!)


This is our Awesome new refrigerator and dishwasher from Jon's parents (so do you like that the dishwasher is in the dinning room???) well it doesn't fit in the kitchen...the people who lived here before were either really short or didn't care how high anything was!!!So the dishwasher doesn't fit under the counters!!

This is our up stairs these are our spare bedrooms or future kids rooms you could fit 2 beds in them nicely.


this is our stairs and hallway once your'e up stairs. and yes that sign does say
CLEARANCE 5''1
you do have to duck going up and down the stairs:)
this is our master bathroom (Jon Loves the pink) that is gone now...but not the wall paper. we will get to this room later...we want to remodel the kitchen first (so we don't have to wash all our dishes by hand!!!!) all the sinks and counters are so short!! really annoying especially when you wash hair all day bending over!!


this is my walk in Closet!!! yes i said mine...jon has his stuff in the sparerooms closet!!! (jons closet)the sad thing is i still have A lot of clothes still at my condo!!!! this is our master bedroom and the brick is not really brick don't let it fool you!!!!We are right now staying in one of the spare bed rooms cuz Jon has our room ripped apart and i told him until our room is all the way done we are not sleeping in there so we are sleeping on our bed on the floor :)
before jon ripped stuff out and after

This is our down stairs bathroom before we putt all our crap in it After we are redoing the whole bathroom all so. the shower has to be redone and the wall paper is coming off and all the ugly yellow wood is coming down!!!! its rotting
before after

This our front porch right now we have our bed frame and alot of crap that we still need to unpack on it.

This is our glass sunroom...i was going to decorate it all cute and stuff and have furniture out there but now we have 3 little kittens that live out there!!!



there is only one kitten that will let us pet her (i mean him.....the little girls named it mandy and well it is definatly an Andy now with a pink collar :)) The other two like to hide they are afraid of humans.
so they hide behind this bin that we put in there the other day to store their stuff in....they push out the bottom drawer and sleep behind it
.


As you can tell that this large room is now being taken over by toys for the kittens and litter boxes and food containers....instead of cute furniture and lights :)




this is the dinning room before and After

This is the office before and After

Jons dad painted the living room and the office for us!!! He does such and awesome job!

This is the creepy basement!!!! its one of the old kind where you open the door from the floor and walk down to THE HATCH!!!! (if you watch Lost you know what im talking about!!!! :)) I have only really been down there once all the way in and that was cuz Jon carried me on his back!!! these are also pictures of the boys taking out the 3 or 4 old old water heaters (i think thats what they were...it doesn't really matter cuz they are out and we don't need them!!! The boys had tons of fun when it comes to ripping stuff out :) that is our washer and dryer behind the door!!

in the process of Jon getting his bobcat to pull these things out of the basement he decided he was going to rip out a tree in from of our house cuz it was ugly and in the way!!!! i tryed to video tape it but he was to fast for me!!!!!!!



Our lives will all ways be exciting with our house and Jon!!!!!!

Love the house Chrissy! It reminds me so much of one we (ok, I) fell in love with over in this neck of the woods. Unfortunately, we didn't get our offer accepted, so we're still in our little "cozy" house. ;) Remodeling's fun though, when you have the time and $$ to get it done! :) Right now (among several projects that have become "long term") we're working on completely re-doing our master bedroom.
