Vidor House is FINISHED

Hurricane Harvey took so much from us and with the help of flood insurance and my cousin Monica and her husband Benny we were able to get it all put back together.  We feel so blessed that our life is ok now despite how hard it felt at the time.  Soon I will get around to sharing a better timeline, a play by play of sorts, but for now here is the AFTER of our Vidor house.

We changed out the hall bathroom from a single vanity to a double vanity since it is the only bathroom other than the master bath.  I am so happy we did this.

 

We changed the layout of the kitchen, but kept everything in the living and dining the same.

 

The kitchen is the biggest change.  I am so happy with the 12 foot island and taking out the pass through and L-shape to the cabinets.

 

In the master bath we changed from a tub with a step up to a walk in shower.  We hoped to add a glass shower door, but everyone is so backed up right now that we will have to wait.

 

This is the master bedroom.  We took out the two small closets that were on each side of the window and replaced it with a walk in closet after reworking the duct work for the HVAC.  What a change it made!

 

This is the girls' room and it previously had some built ins around the HVAC, but that wall is now closed off to accommodate the walk in closet on the other side of the wall for the master bedroom.

 

This is the boys' room.  We split the boys' closet with the office on the other side so now the house can be considered 4 bedrooms instead of 3.

 

This is the formal living/office/now can be a fourth bedroom.  We added that closet and a door to the hallway.

 

The blue paint was touched up from what the kids and Jake did last year and we replaced all the windows as well.  It has been such a journey, but I am so happy with how it turned out.  We have still not been able to see it in person, but now that my Mom lives there we will be able to see it when we visit.  I am so grateful for the Lord's hand in our lives through all of this.  I know that we are better off now than before and in the end it is all okay.
