We are finally done with the dining room & living room! I am so excited :) Our couch came in yesterday so we did a lot of moving of couches last night. We borrowed my dads work van to pick up the new couch and then move the old couch out to East Aurora. I drove the van to pick up the couch and back to the house and I told Bob that I felt like Doug Heffernan from King of Queens. haha
Here are a bunch of before & after photos! The dining room is first then the living room. Please ignore the mess in most of them. The house was a disaster for the week that it took to strip wallpaper & paint.
Enjoy!
The wallpaper was a pain to take down!

We hope to get matching chairs for the living room but will probably wait a few months to do that. Our plan is to get our Christmas tree on Saturday. I am so excited for Christmas. It is my favorite time of the year. I can't wait until there is some snow on the ground! :) As long as it is cold, it might as well snow.
What are your holiday traditions?
