Does This Look Like Fun to You?






Does this look like fun to you?? It sure does to us....well, kind of. These are pictures of our new home! As you can see, there is a lot of work going on! We are completely remodeling the entire kitchen, including new cabinets, counter tops, flooring, paint, and in some places, new drywall! The family room (the red room) is also getting a new floor (thanks to a leak) and some new drywall and all the other rooms will get new paint, and the bedrooms will get some new carpeting. Oh, and a garage is in the works as well. Remodeling is hard work, but I think the worst is behind us. Some of the worst included tearing, ripping, or doing whatever we could to remove 3-4 layers of wallpaper, and taking up the moldy, wet floor....yuck!! I love home improvement projects, and the timing of this couldn't be better, in terms of giving us something to take our mind off of the wait :) More pictures to come in the future!

The wood floors are SO pretty and that big bright window with lots of green outside. Wow, very pretty.

Oh the memories come flooding back. We've BTDT and are still remodeling in some cases. It is so much work but you will love your home when it is all put back together. So much better to do it now than when you have your son home.

Happy Hammering!
