Our Hardwork is paying off!

Jessica's dad came up and helped clean up the yard. We are so thankful for all his help!

Patriotic Office - Crown Moulding will soon be added to all rooms. !



Firefighter Bedroom


Carpet was installed in 3 bedrooms, the hall and on the stairs.





We decided to put False treads on the stairs to follow current trends in today's housing market.

Bruce figured out how to construct the treads.
We purchased a granite vanity counter top for the Masterbathroom.




Let's put it this way.... it was a long process. Over the long weekend, we Took 4 Truck Loads of debrie to the dump.





Well after working really hard over the last month. We had several things that had to be completed.
1. Vanity Top and Sink installed. (MasterBath)
2. Toilet Installed (Master Bath )
3. Rail Road Ties and other Debries removed from back yard.
4. Bedrooms Painted.
5. Carpet Installed. Upstairs Hall and Bedrooms.

This house has really come together for the first time in nearly 3 years! I can't wait to do the 3 year anniversary.... before and after photos. I am falling in love with the home we have created.
Sometimes a little vision and some TLC can go a very long ways.

The Race Against Time.....




We have until 9 a.m. Tuesday morning and if it's not done.... well it's not done.


Just look at the mess of drywall dust we are swimming in.... and it all has to be cleaned up. Along with the rest of the finishing work. Time is running out..... and my handyman is sawing logs. 4:15 a.m. I told him to go to bed for a couple hours... because we need no "shoty" handman work at this point. I hate doing things more then once... I would rather do it once... and do it right the first time. While he has been sleeping... I have been working. I cleaned the Kitchen, did some touch up painting in the living room and Master Bedroom, and moved some furniture. Along with a few other little things.
