Ok, so not necessarily from our sponsors. I just want to give some quick background. Rachel and I moved to Hillsboro about 3 weeks ago, and many people have been clamoring, positively CLAMORING for photos of our project.
This blog is for you.
Maybe you aren't interested in the photos... and thats ok. You are not legally bound to look at them. You can just read the updates of things we are doing and laugh maniacally at our naivete, our grand undertaking and all it entails... if you want to.
You don't have to do that either.
But why, then, are you here? Yeah, I don't know either...
For the first few posts, we will be in recap, because there is a lot of stuff that we have been doing, but haven't had the internet access until this week, so please, bear with us. After we get caught up, we will try to keep updates in real time as much as possible. That being said, there is a lot to do, so it may not be every day.
For a warm-up, I'll show you some 'before' pics.
One thing these pictures (or any pictures) don't show is the state of cleanliness. It was... not good. REALLY not good. As in, we had to scrub the walls in the bathroom for 7 hours (not kidding, Rach spent a whole day cleaning the bathroom) not good. Eventually, most of the surfaces will be either sealed in or replaced, so deep cleaning is not that big of an issue. Enough surfaces clean that we can live in the house during construction is all we really needed, but even that was a full couple days work...
So there's your teaser! A few pics to whet the appetite, and there's plenty more to come. Right now I have to go play plumber for a bit. More on that later!
