Renovations, Schmelovations

Owning a house is fun because of all the projects you can find to do. Seems like projects can be never ending-I have a pretty big wish list for us already. The trouble is getting a project finished though! We started ripping apart our basement bathroom thinking we'd have it done in a weekend...little did we know all the presents we'd run into. To say the least we had a ripped apart bathroom begging to be put back together for a little over a month.

The finished project. . . .
Cam laid the tile with help from his daddy and it looks wonderful! And of course we had fun painting together!!!


It seems sometimes that the only projects that get done without problems are the ones that are hired out. Though that wasn't the case with our windows when they mysteriously cut the power to our outside but swear they couldn't have caused it even though they fixed it! We decided since the government and utility companies would pay us to get new windows we'd give it a go and hopefully save some monthly money along the way.

This is my most favorite window EVER! Jenny's room. It's so nice now to be able to walk in there and not feel like you just walked into an ice castle. I love the difference they have made in the house already! We are loving our home!!!

WOW, wonderful improvements. Cam is turning into a handyman, a talent he didn't know he had until he bought a house I bet. You are such a cute family- I love you all!
