Our Own Fixer Upper

So, we moved it last week to our new home in Cleveland, TN. We have a ways to go yet but our house is now livable. You wouldn't believe the amount of time and energy we have put into fixing it up. The before pictures are pictures of pictures and that is why the poor quality. They can't convey how gross it felt! It was a rental and the tenants had up to 8 dogs. All the work has been done by us, my dad, John's dad, my mom, brother John, a guy that works for my dad, and some of our friends. The only thing we hired someone to do was put down the carpet.
The kitchen has seen massive changes. The cabinets and walls once were slimy with grease and layers of wall paper. We had to put sheet rock up on the walls and after a good scrubbing the cabinets were painted white and adorned with new hardware. New appliances, faucet, a garbage disposal, wood floors, and light fixtures give our kitchen a clean start. Still to come we are going to redo the counters and crown molding.
