I have watched enough HGTV to know that renovating a house is a super simple project that can be completed in between the commercials. HA HA HA HA HA!
The buying process for this house dragged on for 153 days. Imagine being on a roller coaster full of hoops and dips and drops and loops for 5 months...we are SO happy that this house is finally ours but it is all a bit surreal that we finally get to begin the renovations to make it our HOME.
 |
| First thing..NEW LOCKS! This baby is OURS! |
This is a MERCER renovation so it will be a family affair... first things on the list: remove a wall, remove a fence, remove the popcorn ceiling, remove a sliding glass door and remove 500 paving stones of six different designs from around the yard.

| Great Pop at work. |
 |
| Going....going..... |
 |
| GONE!!! |
 |
| Grammy and Aunt Karen working hard. |
 |
| Our lovely kitchen and the wall that needs to GO. |
 |
| They make it look so easy. |
 |
| This was ALL collected from around the yard!!! Today! |
 |
| Testing my color ideas...it was really bright green so off to the paint store for more colors to test! |
 |
| Our first "family dinner" aroound the fire pit after a long day or hard work. |
 |
| SO HAPPY!! |
