Here we go.... what do you do after you buy a house, get married, and go on an amazing honeymoon all within one month? ... start a blog.... yay
We wanted to start this blog initially to document all the projects and renovations happening to our house. Literally the night we arrived back home after being gone for 3 weeks we started ripping up the carpets. Since we were 12 hours ahead and severely jet lagged... this was not a problem. It has been two weeks and there are NO carpets left in this house. Most wall-paper has been stripped. All "fake" tiles have been removed from the bottom floor and Marc is now working on the infamous pop-corn ceilings.
We are excited with the progress so far. Even though our bed is in the living room and most of our belongings are still in storage and we still don't have any chairs or tables... this is what we love and what memories are made of. I enjoy working beside Marc even if we don't talk for hours. Having our own house is exciting. I have actual concerns now about scuffing our wood floors or what if a tree falls on our house (it stormed super bad today lol). After hours of watching hgtv and researching on how to do this or that... its now coming into play. I can't wait to see what we do with this place. Real life mad men coming into action for this midcentury modern canvas.
My hopes are to fill this blog with updates of our renovation process for ourselves. I want to be able to look back through the posts and laugh. I can only imagine what fails we may experience but what's life without a little risk ;)
