The Makeover: 1229 Continental Rd

Hi all! It's been awhile sine I (Mary Kate), have posted anything. School is keeping me very busy. I was going to post Cecilia's b-day, but my mom beat me to it. So scroll down to see her birthday post!

Now that our old house is completely done and on the market I thought I would post some pics of the before/after of the house since most of you, if not all of you have been to our old house. I did my best to match the before and after pictures but they are not the exact same angle.

So here goes:








I don't have before pictures of these pics so I just put them together:





When us kids first saw the old house finished, we all wanted to know why it wasn't so nice when we lived there! Please keep praying that it gets sold to the right people soon!

(Also, I promise to do the same thing for our new house, the one we live in, soon!)

I loved seeing these, and I do think it's funny how our houses look best after we've left them. Oh well. :) Your family did a lot of wonderful living in that house. I have fond memories of watching very single behind-the-scene footage on the Lord of the Rings DVDs with Teresa and Scott on our tiny portable TV, late at night in the family room. And I remember flying out to watch the Oscars together in 2004 with you folks and the Pierces. Remember we cheered on the LOTR crew as they won 11 (or was it 13?) Oscars? Fun times!
