Here are some pics to give u girls an idea if anyone is interested..

Wow! That is awesome! We just purchased a house a few months ago as well - went thru remodeling as well, and it's a proud feeling when all is said and done. Wishing you lots of luck - and congratulations you on such a big accomplishment!

Re: Ive been MIA

Glad to hear from you!! Wow... I know what it's like working on a house. My FH is a contractor. Our house was a HUGE mess when he purchased it and three years later it's just about done. Wow! If you ever need work done FM me and I'll give you FH's info if you want a quote or something.

Re: Ive been MIA

What a nice house. It's going to look beautiful when it is all finished. I live at home with my mom right now and she is getting work done so the house will look nice for the wedding photos. Right now we have no kitchen.

Re: Ive been MIA

Thanks for the compliments girls.. the house is coming along well and hopefully it will be perfect.
its just time consuming right now but I'm sure in the long run it willbe worth it.

I really just wanted to keep u girls posted on my news since i have not been on the boards at all.

As far as when the house will be done.. its estimated to be done inside by the end of April-begining of May.
Whatever outside work needs to be done will be done by the end of the summer ( im hoping)
I will update the pics as the house condition progresses!

Wow you are a busy girl! I hope that everything goes great!
