before pictures...

Taylor tells people to "look for the potential" when looking at these pictures. If you ask me, you don't have to look very far to see the potential. We fell in love with the "nooks and crannies" of this house, along with its great charm and character. These pictures were all taken before the previous owner moved out, hence all of her stuff in our pictures! Here's a sampling...

yes, it really is plywood in our bathroom...

Every time I am reminded about updating my blog, I seem to groan and go, ugh! Only because I can't seem to keep up with this. And every time, I claim that I'll try to do better...but not this time. This time, I'm going to be content with whatever come out and whenever it happens. : ) Life happens.

Speaking of life, we bought a house! Yeah, that happened awhile ago too....June 30th to be exact! I can hardly believe it. While we worked hard and furious for the first 3-4 weeks, things have come screaching to a halt! Not because we want them to, but because we needed a break. Anyway, I want to post some pics and hopefully get some good "before and afters" going. But for now, this will have to do. : )
