So sorry I have been gone so long but with the move to the new house and all the construction and changes we have been making has made me busy! We had my brother in law Curtis come and do tons for us:
1. Remove popcorn ceiling, texture & paint the ceiling. This place was a MESS!!
He set up scaffolding in the entry way to get to the ceiling and then he also painted the walls up there too.
2. Replace all the lighting in the house
3. Rip out both of the upstairs bathrooms which had lots of water damage & mold and re-do them.

The Master bathroom before just had a tub with a shower and a toliet in it but Curtis suggested to us that there was plenty of room to add in a sink so we did that and we love it. There is another sink in the bedroom that I use and when we have more money we will have Curtis come back and re-do that part.
It was super hard to get a good shot of the shower since it has that huge window, but if you can tell he gave us 2 showers heads so that we can shower together and each have our own which is amazing and we are totally spoiled now.
The side yard looked like a tornado hit with all the old crap from the bathrooms.
4. Replace the side yard gate ( you can see the old one in the above picture)
He was a work horse and we couldn't have done it without him!
Dori also came down and helped me paint the whole house! She was amazing to help me and we go sooo much done.
Then a couple of months later my parents came down for a month and my amazing Mom helped me to paint the kitchen cabinets. We removed the doors, cleaned everything, sanded everything, removed the old hinges, added new hinges, add hardware. Seriously I could never have done it without her.

So.... can you see how crazy it has been here? The girls love the house. Now that that HUGE post is over with I should be able to start getting back to blogging.
