House Remodel

 In May 2013 we embarked on a huge remodel/addition to our house.  We had lived on Pebblebrook for almost six years and were quickly growing out of our house.  We had looked for other houses in our area for two years and either couldn't afford what we wanted or houses weren't right for us.  We LOVE our cul-de-sac street, neighborhood, schools, location, etc.  So, Jud finally talked me into taking this journey.

We moved out of our house at the end of May into a townhouse.  We expected to move back at the end of February, but the move in date is now set for mid-April.  Yep, we would be having the baby in the middle of all this.  Needless to say, it's been a crazy year.  

Since the house isn't quite finished yet, I will just post a few pictures of before and during.  I will do a big post of before and after pics when it's completed and life settles down.  Let's call this a teaser.

Here is our cute 3 bedroom, two bath house before.  I will always have a special place in my heart for this house.  It was a great house and we brought our first two babies home to it.

We are going up...adding a second story.  Upstairs we will have 3 bedrooms, two bathrooms and a game room.  Downstairs we are raising some of the ceilings, turning one of the bedrooms into Jud's office, expanding and redoing the kitchen, pushing back the living room five feet and adding a covered patio.

Here's the house with the roof off:

 Basically the same picture of the living room looking towards the kitchen.

 Here's the front with the framing done:

It's looking great and we are loving how it's turning out.  Right now things are moving fast and all the decisions I've made are coming to life.  We are super excited to move in and be back in the neighborhood!

Miller Graduated Pre-K II

It seems silly to post this now since he's almost done with Kindergarten, but I hate to skip important events.  I may be joking myself when I say I'm going to catch up one day, but I'm still hoping.

Miller graduated Pre-K II at Wildcat Way last May.  He's so handsome!

 He got the award for the biggest ladies man and the boy the girls always chase on the play ground.

 We LOVED Ms. Denise and really miss her.  She was so great to us.  This was her last year to teach.  She retired and moved to OK to be close to family.
