Moving Forwards!

Ok, sorry about the title. No pun intended.  We have some big moves as far as progression goes this week!  First and foremost: Monday night Kirkwood's architectural review board met, and we were given the OK to start renovations! Very exciting!


Next, we got some mock-ups of what the outside of the house will look like after it is completed.  I will hopefully be posting those tomorrow or Saturday.  I would say later today, but that would be very wishful thinking I believe.


Dad took off work yesterday and today and has been going crazy with the sledgehammer again. I think he said that today they are tearing out the wall between the living room and master bedroom.  Someday soon it will become a closet.  


So as you may or may not remember, last weekend I said I would be posting tons of pictures.  I promise I am not falling through on my promise already.  Life has just been crazy.  I've been housesitting, working, and of course I'm still in school. Busy, busy.  The post is currently a "draft" sitting on the blogger site.  It's halfway done with the old pictures, but then I realized we were missing some of the rooms.  Like the former kitchen and back room.   Kind of important given that those are the two rooms that will be most drastically different after the project is complete.  Dad has been advised to snap a few before pictures, so hopefully those will get posted BEFORE the "after" pictures of the outside.  


In other related news, the contractor is working at our current house today fixing up a few little things so it looks even more beautiful when the time comes for us to move.  Apparently we should hopefully be ready as soon as February or March.  How crazy is that?  That's really soon.


I feel like I'm forgetting something else really important, but I'm sure you're already on sensory overload right now.  So to sum up, project is moving forwards (and fast) and there will be TONS of pictures coming your way later this week or this weekend.  Get excited!
