Cottage, Before- During- After, Pictures

We teamed up with the some friends, the Cuneos, to makeover this crooked little, century old, cottage. It was gross, so gross that it could only get better.

I ordered a dumpster and sincerely thought it would take a weekend to gut and another week to decorate. So funny...so so funny. 4 months later...

All Smiles!

 The furnace was in the bedroom- legit.

I have a vivid memory of Erin and I telling our kids to get off this couch- Imagine letting your kids sit in an ashtray.

I hope you don't think that there was not a mouse nest under this toilet- because there was.

Welcome!

Every little decision- what to keep, scrap or replace...kid's votes counted. Go Team!

Family Photos

I am back 1/2 year later to show you how incredibly cute and smart (you can definitely get a sense of their intelligence by looking at them) our kids are. 

The day was sweltering and I chose to book our photos at 4:00PM, right about the time we all get really hungry, whiny and tired. Thankfully, the photographer worked her magic and made it appear like we are a happy and put together crew.

 No smiles, but we will take it!

Every year I write off paying for a professional photo shoot. Then, in a rare moment of 'they are growing up so fast', I book a session, we hobble through it and I never regret it.
