Da New Pad

Aunt Kt and Uncle Tray recently moved a few miles out of town to get some more land and a bigger house. Since they just moved not too long ago, we hadn't seen their new place until this past weekend. We knew it would be nice, but we were amazed to see how much work they had done and how great everything looked in such a short amount of time! The pictures really don't show off all the details of their hard work!

Coming up to the front of the house. We love the little fenced yard and flower beds (which you can't see very well in this picture).

As you walk in the house, the laundry room is straight in front and the kitchen is off to the right. They completely redid the floors, countertops, cabinet hardware, and painted the walls. It looks so good! (Hehe - Ian and Aunt Kt are hiding from the camera!)

Off to the right of the kitchen is the guest bath. So peaceful in there!

Just beyond that is the guest bedroom. If you look carefully, you can see Ace giving the grand tour.

Not pictured is a wall that Uncle Tray's amazingly talented parents built that now separates the guest room from Ace's room (it used to be one huge room). Ace's room looks FANTASTIC! The pictures really do not show how cool this kid's room is. The furniture is awesome - we love it!

Here's the armoire that goes with the bed, nightstand, and dresser. Ian is totally going to get an armoire now when we redo his room!

Back in front of the kitchen is the dining area. I love this place! It's soooo clean!! If you look carefully, you can see the table matches Ace's furniture. I love that!

And even cooler is the fact that this table becomes a poker table! Poker party this weekend at Uncle Tray's!

To the left of the dining room is the living room. It's so big and spacious!! (Again, the photos don't do this place justice!)

The view from the couch. I love the rock fireplace!

To the left of the living room is the master bedroom...nice, large, and comfy cozy in an elegant way!

I love all the decorations!

Then, of course, there is the master bathtub. Talk about luxury!! (And more awesome decor!)

The other side of the master bath.

Out back is a nice comfy deck.

That now leads down to this amazing deck Tray's parents built!

Love the reds!

This must be every little boy's dream - a big dirt pile in his own backyard!

And a great place to climb under a large shady tree...pure bliss!

Aunt Kt and Uncle Tray (and Dee and Kirk and everyone else who helped!), we are MUCHO impressed with your new pad. It already looks and feels like home. We felt so comfortable hanging out there this last weekend and can't wait to come back and play!

P.S. Dee - I still wanna hire you to do our house someday! Love, love, love your decorating skills!
