Time to renovate

As you may gather from the background pic, this blog is about the renovation to our home. We've been in this house since 1997 and have made cosmetic changes over the years to most of the rooms with flooring and paint. We have saved the kitchen for last as we knew that it would be a big, expensive pain in the butt.

Earlier this year, with Anna's wedding at the end of October, we figured it was finally time to make a move. In addition to a new kitchen, we really wanted a little more space. Andy works out of a home office and Monica has a lot of scrapbooking paraphernalia. We also wanted to have a bit more open space and a larger dining room.

Do we move or do we renovate? Move! Renovate! Didn't relish the thought of either but eventually decided to renovate. Time will tell if that is the correct decision

So we find ourselves now not only updating the kitchen but enclosing the current party patio AND adding a second story addition. I'm also updating the master bedroom, bath and closet.  What the heck were we thinking?

This blog is really for us to document this project for our own masochistic pleasure. If you find our travails and ultimate reward amusing then please follow this blog.

  1. I would not miss it. Renovations have most people pulling their hair out, so hang in there. The results will be awesome!
