Changes all over!

Been painting, scrubbing, sanding, moving things here and there, planting, cleaning and with the added barn sale, chicks and garden we are busy bee's!

The fun of it all is seeing the changes that are happening slowly and it is amazing at the progress we have made in such a short time. Both visible and small changes, from changing a switch to digging out the window wells (last big rain only a bit of rain YEA! No river Nile in the basement!)

Here is a few pictures of the changes going on:
Stripping wallpaper- Some really neato old paper in the rooms! 

 

Did you notice any ghosts any of our pictures?

Guess whose getting a face lift! Our landlord started the big process of scrapping the house a 

few weeks ago! I'm anxious to see how the new paint colors are going to look! 

We fell head over heels...

the moment we saw the place!
The peeling paint, the musty smell, cobwebs and overgrown yard seemed to call out to us. I can just imagine the interesting times they must have had here. Oh, if these walls could talk!

I'm glad my better half is organized for the most part, he keeps the projects to do on track. I have a tendency to get attacked by Mommy brain and forget why I went into a room.

It has been fun planning what to work on next and looking at pictures taken before we moved in has served to remind us what we have done. Sometimes the things done are small and a visitor would have no idea of the time put into certain projects, such as changing the outlet covers, putting blinds up, puttying the holes in the walls or just picking/or cleaning up the yard.

It is very rewarding and fulfilling!

Now the plans we have range from a Bed and breakfast, working farm, and antique shop. Oh, did I mention maybe supplying bait to fishermen/women?






Here's a several more pictures of our casa! Again, the rooms are still under improvement.
