The transformation of a neglected, out-of-date house to a loving, contemporary home.
Tuesday, March 10, 2009
Oh, Josh also gave me permission to tear out the kitchen carpet, but thinking how comical this would look as I wield my crow bar with my large pregnant belly looming above, I think I will wait for his return!
Grab your paint brush, hammer, and gardening gloves, and join Josh & Kelly as they transform their newly-purchased, neglected, and out-of-date house into a newly-remodeled, loving, and contemporary home where they can live comfortably with their 10 month old daughter, Madilyn and cat, Izzy. Be prepared for laughs, challenges, and mistakes as they take on this seemingly overwhelming task!
