A little over six years ago, Chris and I purchased our 'forever' house. At the time it was big...a lot of space for just the two of us and a six month old Philip. Now we fill every bedroom and then some! We knew then that we had many projects ahead of us. We've tackled several...new A/C upstairs, new windows, bathroom remodel, a living room spruce-up, etc. But the biggest has been what I have been dreaming of ever since we made the purchase. The time is now!
Tonight is our last night in our house for about four months! Tuesday begins our long awaited kitchen remodel.
Some before pictures to share...

And then a few to show what things look like when we all get in there together...

Because there are walls being knocked out, wood floors refinished, cement slab jackhammered to move plumbing, etc..., we have decided to move out. Mom and Dad were gracious enough to invite our crazy crew of six plus the dog to live with them. While the price was right, we jumped when the house literally behind us came up for rent. We can watch the construction, maintain our routines, and provide GranGran and PopPop the ability to keep their sanity!
The past couple of days have been busy and we still have much to do before the movers arrive on Monday. But the excitement of what's to come makes it all worthwhile!
