More Home Improvements

This past week we were able to have a company come and fix the outside of our home. We had a lot of stucco damage due to sprinklers spraying on the house and the previous owners did a lot of stucco repair themselves that didn't look the greatest. After we received a notice from the home owners association for the stucco damage we decided that we just needed to bite the bullet and have it completely repaired and painted. These are the before pictures. (It was trash day, so the bags of garbage are not a usual installment.)


These are the after pictures below. I wished after the fact that I would have taken pictures of the stucco damage but of course I didn't. We decided to go with darker colors which we liked.

Although we hated to spend the money on painting the outside of our home, it has made a big difference.

More home improvements to come......

I love, love, love the paint. It just kills me when people get a new paint job and stick with the old peach and pink colors. I love the blog too :). I'm not motivated to work on mine lately.

I too like the darker colors. Good choice!

Hey guys- Some time has passed from when we peeked last. Ever since you whent private, it never updates and we forget to take a look. It looks like you are very happy in Nevada, as we thought you would be. It looks like home and we love the new laundry room! I cannot believe Abby is 9. It will not be much longer until we will be calling for that arranged marriage to Brenner that we talked about! =) We promise to check back more often- The Smiths

So glad you like what you did and even better you didn't have to do it yourself! I spent a summer helping my mom paint our house exterior, worth whatever it cost you, I promise!
