Our Summer Plans

It's going to be an exciting spring and summer for us. Just looking at our garage right now gives insight into where we'll be. Spoiler: we'll be wearing our work clothes. 

In this one photo we have at least 5 projects ready to go. We have some small jack-trusses that will span the front of the house on the right bottom of the photo, shingles for the mudroom (we already re-roofed the garage), a huge stack of exterior siding in front of the garage, the mudroom tile waiting to go in, and three pallets of heating/cooling equipment ready to be installed.

It's going to be a fun year!

Mudroom

Before

With 4 kids we're always tripping over boots, coats, shoes, and backpacks. So early on we worked a mudroom into our remodel plans.

Now the first steps have been kicked off. The window was converted into a french door and the old slider was removed to be open between the mudroom and the kitchen/dining room.

After

We have patterned cement tile waiting in the garage for this space and have a bench and lockers in the plans to give each kid their own space. It's going to be really cool...

Dressing Up

This little girl is pretty entertaining. She's a pretty great addition to our house of boys.
