Second Stage Renovations












Dear Folkies,

DAVE HAS BEEN WORKING sososososososososososososo HARD! and it is paying off . the house looks awesome, very muchly good. amazing. Even though it still resembles a construction zone...well, the appearance is ten times better than when we started out!

here are a few of the changes we have made: Torn apart the old kitchen, painted it an olive-ish color, started putting in new cabinets, new stove, new fridge. Tiled the floor....IT LOOKS AMAZING! we adapted the design our friends THE CLARKES had in their home. Thank you Clarkes. you are an inspiration to us. :)
this pic of the archway is between the dining and living spaces. the chocolate color is the wall color for the dining room, and contrast for the living room. :) Dave's grand idea, looks awesome.

well...there have been COUNTLESS things changing in the house, and twice as many more to do....but perhaps in a week, or 2 we'll be living there..... ah. wouldn't that be loverly, loverly. loverly. our own home. :)
love from sue

It's looking good. Can't wait to see the tiled floor design Dave made. Any pics of that? Pretty soon you'll have a "street of dreams" place there the way you're going. (or a dream come true, for you and Dave)

Glad things are turning out well for you. So when can we visit?
Taylor asked me to make a picture of Julia for him. I printed off the one from your site.
We miss you here, but are very happy for you.

No Sarah. It's just you. Not to worry though, it's 'second baby lack of sleep' syndrome. You'll get over it in about 3 years...

I think they give you an easier one on second try. Lucky for me.
