Since this picture was taken we have put a new front on the fireplace but we love that we now have a gas fireplace. It has really come in handy over the holidays.

Kyle and I had the crazy idea to redo the living room AFTER we volunteered to host Christmas eve dinner......so we had under 3 weeks to complete the room. Taking the wallpaper down was a nightmare, and we painted the walls twice after realizing we didn't love the first green once the walls were done, but we absolutely love the final result.
