Peekin' on Pickin' - Maggie & Kyle's Place

Last summer, we went to a cookout at Maggie and Kyle's place - some friends we met through Church. I absolutely fell in love with their home, and they were gracious enough to give me a complete tour! Recently, I asked if she would mind sharing photos on my blog, and I can't thank her enough for taking the time to photograph their fabulous house! I am so excited to share this special post with you today - so, wipe your feet, and come on in! Please don't forget to sign the guestbook! (a.k.a. Comments)


Maggie told me that it's a Sears Kit Home, and I have created a link so that you can read about its significance. I think you'll find it fascinating. I did!
Maggie and Kyle did a wonderful job renovating the kitchen.
They refer to this room as the "snack shack", because it is right off the kitchen, and the kids like to eat their bedtime snack in here. Cute, huh?!
The living room -
and another one -
I believe the office is right off the living room. I love the black sofa with the green walls.

Don't you just love the chandelier in the dining room?! I think this photo is magazine-worthy.
Another view of the dining room.
The kids' playroom - I love the flags hanging above the windows.
Maggie's craft nook on the second floor - Isn't it wonderful?!

Her inspiration board (and I'm not talking about the one on the left!) -
It would be great to have a fireplace in the Master bedroom.
I don't think I have to tell you - this is a bathroom! I believe Maggie said that is the original tile on the floor. It was so cute.
These next few are from her little girl's bedroom. We're not really sure about the proper name for the bed, but it's so unique.
It opens into a second bed...almost like a trundle.
A few more views of her daughter's room -




Their son's room -
The attic space - I believe this is Kyle's "man cave", and the kids have a few of their toys up here as well.
I didn't ask, but I'm guessing it may be used as a guest room at times.
Thanks for visiting, and don't forget to sign the "guestbook"!
