Living & Decor, Maintenance, Respectful RenovationApril 23, 2015163Views 0Likes 6Comments

Life moves along slowly, but steadily on our living room project. Some of the tasks, such as wall repair and painting, have been moved to the end of the queue. They will require a few very long work days in order to complete. We normally have longer blocks of time on the weekends. Until…

Renovating while raising a family is no easy task. We are finding this especially true in the living room. It is not called a "living" room for nothing. We watch TV together in the evenings. The two youngest kids pretend the entire floor is lava, and they spend a great deal of time navigating the…

Andy and I got a great start on the bedroom ORC over the weekend.
