Kelly's Korner Living Tour Post

So I decided to try the tour of homes. Sam and myself built this home with our own two hands. We both worked nights and would work till around noon during the day time to try to finish the house. Sam laid every rock in the wood stove hearth, and I was pregnant with Aleeyah when each piece of hardwood was laid (by us of course). We had never built a house before so we had to read and learn things as we went along. Seven years later we are still adding, changing and finishing things on the house but it is our HOME!! We just got new a new sectional and a new table. We wanted the dining room and living room to be one large room. Of course being a "terrified" mother the fence around the fire place was my idea. He made it for me to ease me through the walking stages of the girls. A close call with Aleeyah made me realize that I needed something around those rocks or I was going to keep her in a playpen for the first two years of her life.

This is a view from the dining area into the living area. You have to look past the toys and the fact that the hubby likes to lay his jacket on the table. MEN, I could hurt them.

From the fireplace area down the hallway and you can see the kitchen to your left.
