Before - After

As many of you know, we are living with the MIL (mother-in-law). To pass the time I've taken to redo'ing parts of her house. I think I mentioned that in my last post, right?! Anyway, here is a before/after photo of the dining. Quite an improvement, right?! Man, I wish we would have thought to do before/afters of everything.

So we thought we were done with home improving her at 2382 Hiddengarden Ct., and then the basement happened. Yeah, it rained a lot yesterday and apparently when there is a crack in the foundation it leaks inside...the basement...where there is carpet...and where Mike's sisters and their hubby's are to be sleeping this week. So we'll deal with the basement mess after Christmas, but looking on the positive side of things new carpet really will be nice down there ;)
