filling in the blanks.

real quickly, i just wanted to share the few pictures i have failed to provide in the last few posts i've written.

when i first shared our new house, i managed to forget the entire outside of the house. so here ya go.

here's the front of the house from the street. check out that awesome tree. i can't wait for it to be filled with leaves and be pretty. to the left of the house, you can see the fenced in part of the yard that miss juliet gets to run and play in. eventually, the plan would be to fence in the entire back yard for pups {yes, pups with an S} to enjoy.
i also wouldn't mind the front yard fenced in all pretty, too. maybe my timmy is just itching to build someone another fence. :)

here's the view coming around the driveway toward the side. i like our little lamp post to light the way when we come home and it's dark.

and this is further to the side of the house. two car garage? check! best thing ever not having to scrape ice off the car in the morning at 7 am when i leave for school!

and even further around the house, you get to the back yard. there's a little concrete pad area that will be perfect for a patio area with a little sprucing up. and there are doors leading out from the basement right to the patio area, which is nice. none of this area is fenced in, so that needs to be changed. also, you can see the little drop-off where the tree line starts, but our property actually extends quite far down that hill. if it were up to me, i would clear some of those trees just to give a little bit more yard down there, but not too many trees since they're good for privacy.

so that's the outside of our house. in that same first post, i also failed to get you pictures of our master bathroom. so i don't have "before" pictures, but i can share what it looks like right now. warning: it's a mess.
we need a new light fixture, some sort of cabinet under the sink and actual wall shelving, rather than the flimsy metal shelf thing i've got going right now. and probably a new medicine cabinet of sorts.

this bathroom was recently given a few updates. some good, some bad. the good? the accent tile around the shower, which conveniently coordinates with our bathroom decor we already had.

the bad? the accent tile around the light switch and the outlet that is janky and crooked. and just bad.
oh, well. that will be a pretty easy fix whenever we decide to do so.

a few days ago when i shared some quick faucet updates we worked on, i didn't get a picture of our new shiny chrome faucet in the hall bathroom once the sink was all installed back together, so here's that.
much, much better, yes?

so there. filling in the blanks for you. and yes, i still failed to fill in all of them, because i have yet to get pictures of the basement area. let's just pretend i'm trying to build suspense or something. so be patient.
