Its about time!

I have started this blog to share and journal our home remodel project. Rather than clutter up my family blog...here it is. This project is definitely worthy of its own blog and I will continue to post other rooms as the days go by. We are actually done with the house and moving in the first week of November.

This has been a love/hate relationship. I love the house because of all the work we have put into it....and I hate the house because of all the work we have put into it. But now that there are just minor projects left....I am really excited to move in and make it our own.

I have posted The Kitchen (thought I ought to just get to the good stuff first), Laundry Room and Mud Room.

In posts to come....

Front room
Bathroom
Kya's Room
Baby's Room
Master Suite
and
Floors and lighting

Moving in
Home decor
and
The basement

As I have mentioned before (in other blogs), it has always been a dream of mine to remodel a house. Although, my idea of a remodel was a large home built in the 1800 to early 1900's that has character....a history....and charm. A remodel that was supposed to be my dream home. This has been a fun project, but certainly not my dream home. Part of me feels like I can't wait to actually do that dream home project and now that we have the experience....we know what we are headed for. And then the more sensible part of me (not that I really have a sensible side), wants nothing to do with a home remodel again.

Who knows what the future will bring. As for now....we are going to enjoy our first big project together and being home owners for the first time. Looking forward to many memories made with our little family in this house.

Stay tuned for more posts of the finished product and then even home decor pics after "the move in".
