And the renovations continue!!!!!

I am amazed at how quickly they can tear things down and build them back! It has been so fun watching the work come so far! The builders have been busy framing the changes to the house. Here are pictures of all that has been done since demo!

We had many trees removed and the ivy and moss dug up.

Now we are waiting on the sod!

The wall came down to open up the kitchen space.

The Hoover House: For REAL!!!!!

For those of you who are unaware, Bill and I have been blessed with the opportunity to buy his Grandma's house. This house is a house I have loved for a long time, and you can imagine the love his family has for this home. Not only is this house a perfect space for our family, it is in the perfect neighborhood, on the perfect street for our family. However, this house was built in 1970 and is pretty much original throughout, well until about 4 weeks ago!!!! We are more than excited to breathe new life into this wonderful house that is already so full of amazing memories! So many of you have asked how the renovation is going and if I have any pictures. Well here they are!

*Disclaimer: I do NOT have a way with words, so if you are looking for clever, cutesy thoughts instead of just pictures, be prepared to be disappointed :)
