The White House

It sure has been one crazy year for Ryan and I. Graduated from college, moved, got new jobs, adopted a black lab puppy, and most recently.... bought our first home! 

The past two months we have been working our hiney's off making some cosmetic improvements to the house. Ripping wallpaper down, painting, and redoing the hardwood floor in our dining room kept our nights very busy.  With the help of our awesome families we were able to make all the improvements we wanted to! In the end it was ALL worth it!

So, without further ado here are the before and after pictures of our home... the White House ;)
