It is obvious Blogging is not one of my strong points...yet. It has been 7 months since my last blog and the main reason is to have a "diary" per say of what is going on in my life. I really wanted to track the process of buying a house but I found it so time consuming that I have not written a thing. So here we are now in our new home and no details have been recorded. I think I will start some things about the house and life now.
So here it is. There have been a lot of changes happening at this location since September when we closed. We are thrilled to have lots of room to roam and a little pond to keep Jed's fishing wrist happy. What I have been most impressed with so far is the beautiful sun rises and sun sets the Lord has put in our view. It is something most people don't think about but when you are in the city and you see beauty like this, it is always laced with towers and electric poles and high rises. Out here, there is the occasional pole or line but mostly it is all just the beauty of God's Creation!
For my "diary" purposes I am going to add a few more pictures and explanations. Feel free to browse through. I may even try to post before and afters...well nearly afters....since nothing is totally complete yet.
Day of Purchase
Getting started on the renovation.
Pantry removed and wall extended upward.
Floor and cabinets installed with new paint color :)
Other new appliances with old cabinets. We will eventually replace them to match the new ones and get a new sink and all new/matching countertops. Next step is to paint the cabinets red and repaint my cabinet (the white one) and add the top hutch part to it.
A peak at the next project - finishing the hall bathroom.
This is what it looked like upon purchase.
Tub and surround are installed and that is what we use. Still no sink or toilet.
This will be part of the bathroom. Hopefully this weekend.
I close out today's writings with one of those beautiful sunrises I talked about. Have a blessed day!
