Mason’s Home Updates

Today I’m sharing some home updates. My sweet friend Becca who I visited at the blogging conference is an interior designer and she helped us pick paint colors, and her husband and mine came and tore up walls, put in new floors, and put up trim and paint. I love the new black doors, white trim and finally white windows.    Here are some before and afters!  The Before of the entryway in one word was: Dark! 

I’m so in love with the after. The bench was an antique store find, and I love the half shiplap, half painted walls Becca helped us with. I love all the flowers in this space and it’s so functional for our needs.

Here’s the before of the living room. Can you tell that we bought this house from some elder sims? But now I love how light and bright it is. The fireplace is my favorite and I love how now the center of our home feels so peaceful and inviting. We have also finished the laundry room and downstairs bathroom, so all that’s left is the kitchen/dinning area. But I think the next space I’ll be sharing is my office make over. (Or cute pictures of our animal friends! Speaking of Bella is being her normal self making a mess and photobombing these living room photos!) 

Hope you enjoyed these photos! More to come soon! 

Puppy Love: Meet Bella

Sending a little update on things here on Adoption Ranch. Today I want to you meet Bella, our cute little golden retriever puppy! Here’s how she was described to us when we went to adopted her (the EA story)  “This little puppy is a terrible terror! The constant yapping, digging, and slobbering EVERYWHERE is enough to drive anyone up a wall! Luckily he found a home with the Masons, a couple with more than enough love to lavish on this needy pup.” We’re hoping to teach her some good behavior and eventually maybe breed her once she’s grown so we can have MORE cute puppies! So enjoy the pictures of Isaac and I going goo goo over this sweet girl. 

Loved playing this family. Really did. Love the backstories of some of the EA townies. 

Appaloosa Plains Townie Make Overs

As part of my last post you ‘met’ Kelsey, so here’s a bit more about her and her husband Isaac, who both started as townies.

I was looking for a new family and fell in love with this sweet couple’s story in Appaloosa Plains. Decided to give them a makeover and play through some of their story.

Here was their original story: The Marshalls are madly in love, have a beautiful home, and successful careers. What could go wrong? A glossy exterior hides their secret pain - try as they might they’ve been unable to have a child. Crib, toy box, and highchair sit unused, and so the Marshall’s bide their time and mask their emotions by adopting all the pets they can handle. Puppies, kittens, foals - anything they can nurse and cherish, they welcome into their home. Will they one day be able to have the final addition that would make their family complete?

Kim and Felipe Marshall are now Kelsey and Isaac Mason!

Their new story: Meet the Masons! Hi there! We’re the Masons! Isaac and I met in college where I was a business major and he was a Criminal Justice major but we bonded over our love of animals. We dream of one day running a rescue ranch, taking in animals, training them, and then helping them find new homes to love them as their own. I (Kelsey) also have a huge love of all things baby so expect to see lots of pictures of foals, kittens and puppies here (and also possibly some guinea pigs, turtles, snakes or lizards)!

Currently I work as social media and graphic design manager with a local pet store and Isaac is on the police force living his dream. I’d love to be able to be able to eventually be a full time blogger for our ranch to be able to run our animal rescue as a business but for now I juggle both! We’re excited to have you along for the ride.
