We Have Siding!

It's been a while!  I'd love to give a good excuse for why I haven't updated recently but all I can come up with is...life.  Our life has been a little (or a lot) hectic recently but the craziness has paid off because....this house is FINALLY starting to look better!  We've had several different companies over at the house working during the day and we've still been working at night as much as possible.  I have to say, I am so excited to share these long awaited pictures with you all! 


When we first bought the house we thought the window in the far left of this picture was damaged because it wouldn't close.  In reality, there was no damage at all.  Just a vine an inch thick growing in the seal keeping the window from shutting.  That said...a little clean up went a long way back here.  Here you can also see some of our new windows and siding going up! 


I think life hit me in the face and reminded me that I'm really a grown up now when I got so excited about new garage doors.  Can you blame me though?  They're pretty doors!  When our garage door guy came to put these in the old garage doors literally fell off the tracks.  So to say it was time for these to go up is an understatement.  


And FINALLY our house is starting to come together! On the outside at least.  If you don't remember what the "before" picture looked like its certainly worth going back and comparing the two.  There are still lots of little things to be done to the outside (shutters, gutters, front door, etc.) but this improvement is too good not to go ahead and share with you all.  

Tonight we're putting up sheet rock!  That means paint will be on the walls before we know it!!  I can't wait to show you all more pictures of the inside once it starts shaping up.  Check back soon for more updates!!
