We didn’t get too far on Day One, and that’s mostly because we spent hours frolicking around our new house like baby lambs in a field of daisies, making snow angels in the thick shag carpet because this is OUR house {OURS!} and its JUST PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL, and talking nonstop for hours about our heartfelt visions and dreams about the FUN, pure THRILLING FUN of transforming this diamond-in-the-rough into a dream estate that HGTV will most likely want to film for its own series because its so dang PERFECT (you know, once we get done)…perusing Lowe’s, looking for tools, and getting distracted by the treasures the homeowners left behind.
It’s exciting stuff… I was enamored by a box of old children’s books that ALSO included a tiny pair of baby sandals from the 1960s and (AND!) some vintage bird prints from 1942; hubby dove off headfirst into the treasure trove that is his shop and found tons of really cool Mad Men props. I mean, can you BELIEVE the former owners left so much cool stuff behind?!
So while we should have been doing something useful, we were all LOOK!!! THEY LEFT US SOME OLD TUPPERWARE!!! OH MY GOSH ISN’T LIFE GREAT?! There is NOTHING that can go wrong and we’re gonna live happily ever after in our cool new house!
*big happy sighs…
Very excited for you. 🙂 Can't wait to see what you guys do. Love seeing people transform older homes into something new!
