exterior updates.

we've still got a ways to go..but this my most favorite change so far. hopefully this weekend we'll wrap up the trim and add another coat to complete the paint job. new shutters are on the way, as well as a new front door and porch! can't wait to see the finished product.


before.

sold!

as of about 2 hours ago, we are officially homeowners! grant has always said when the time came to buy a house, he wanted a "fixer-upper"...well, he definitely got it.  construction crews are set to start this afternoon renovating our original condition 1952 house into the new ridgway home.  we have been working so hard to get estimates, drawings, sub-contractors, new appliances, etc. over the last few weeks, and it is really hard to believe that we're about to watch the changes occur over the next 4 to 6 weeks.  grant and i are planning to share all the befores and afters on the blog, as well as the interesting stories along the way (they're sure to happen).  i'm pretty very new to the whole blogging scene, so your patience with technical difficulties is greatly appreciated.  pictures are to follow soon, but i believe i've accomplished enough in my first blog post ever.


welcome to our life!


love,
grant and lauren
