Thanksgiving and House Pictures

We had the joy (seriously) of hosting Thanksgiving dinner at our new home this year. We had a very full house and everyone had a great time. We took lots of pictures and I sort of realized after the fact that I never actually posted any pictures here of all the changes we made to the house, so far. We are constantly customizing it and "de-old-lady-fying" it. Here are the highlights so far...

Here is what my office that my dad, Missy's brother Josh, and I built. It is still not 100% done, but is very close.



To get to the office you walk through the new hall, which senses your presence and turns on the lights for you.



The downstairs is our play room, and it lived up to it's name. We have a new TV sectional with dual glider chairs, a new La-Z-Boy Big Boy rocking chair, electric fireplace heater, the 40" LCD mounted on the wall and XBox 360 and Wii games for the kids. Yeah, for the kids :) We ditched the all-white "sterile look" for much warmer colors.





We could not have Thanksgiving dinner on my old table. It was cheap and falling apart, and I purchased it many years ago following the divorce. It was only intended for me and the girls. The new table is MUCH nicer and made a great place for the "adults" to sit.



That's all for today. I will post some more pictures soon. (Soon in Todd time)
