Upstars remoldel

We have lived in our home since we got married in 2001.  We really haven't done much just some painting and I updated the bathrooms.
Well the boys are old enough that they needed to move upstairs.
I started with an upstairs remodel project which included painting paneling, removing drop ceiling tiles, replacing windows, adding all new trim and painting the floors.
I was so happy with this project that the rest of the house is now being done!

P.S.  The boys love sleeping upstairs. They sleep in a different room every night!

In 2008 I decided I wanted chickens.  So I went ahead and ordered some chicks from Ideal Poultry.  I didn't have a clue where I was going to keep them once they out grew the brooder.  Finally I told Randy he had two options 1)  move the old brooder coop back home and fix it up or 2)  make a space in the barn for them.  Well as you can see from the pictures option 1 was picked!   We have added a fence since these were taken.  I was letting them be free range chickens, but I like my flower gardens too much!

ANDREW'S ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy does time go by fast.  When he was born I worried how I was going to manage three young boys.  Now I have trouble remembering how we managed with only two.  Andrew you have truly been a blessing in our lives. We Love You
