Headed back home - new york house tour - part 3

When we bought this house, the basement was not finished.  An entire floor of potential.  I will do a separate post on how we finished it - because it deserves it's own post - and how Chad did most of the work.

For now, here is our basement.

We created three rooms/areas.  The kids gameroom:

One of my favorite parts of the house is this pocket door Chad added!  The cabinet below holds board games, puzzles, paint and craft supplies.  Behind the pocket door is a storage area, all of the "workings" of the house (furnace, water heaters, etc.) and a workshop area for Chad.  

Plenty of room for playing with Barbies, Legos, Nerf battles, and Xbox games.

The next room/area is my workout space:

And just past the workout space is my (and the girls!) craft room:

The girls love to paint so we made a gallery wall for them.  They can hang up their new paintings as they create them.  Ella loves to rearrange them!

That is it for the inside of the house!  Maybe I will round up some outside pictures of our backyard next!

Time to move upstairs!  

All of our bedrooms are located upstairs as well as the laundry room.  Our current New York house is approximately 2,500 square feet.  Our Texas house was around 4,000 square feet and had an extra garage.  I have decluttered and purged my heart out!  It was a lot of work to get rid of so much, but we don't miss it ONE BIT!

Did you hear our news?

We are moving!!!

When Chad was offered the position here in upstate New York, we jumped at the chance for an adventure.  Now, two years later, a new adventure awaits us in a familiar state - Texas!

We have only been in this house just over a year and a half, but we have done SO MUCH to it.  Take a look!
