Before and After


We'll catch up with what we've been doing since we left Russia, through pictures. Since we've been home, it seems like all we've done is work, work, and work. Three months later almost everything has a home including us.












Part of the garage, where we installed our old kitchen cabinets.









Replaced the glass sliding door with French doors and got rid of the fireplace.









Raised the ceiling, added new cabinets and silestone countertops, and moved duct work


















Replaced the pond with a flower bed.







Painted the exterior,
and Landscaped the front yard












Finally we are sitting back enjoying family and friends
and relaxing in the hot sun in the back yard.
Our small house has become a home!
