This is pretty much what the house looked like when we bought it.
We took out the cherry tree in the front yard, and we built the fence just after we moved in.
The back had a funny addition built onto it, a detached garage, and a carport large enough to park out motor home.




The blue print shows the layout of kitchen #1.
Don't miss all the living that has gone on in the pathetic kitchen.








Jesse, About 2 1/2 years old.
Notice the hideous peel and stick tiles on the floor. Remember those!

Jesse and Sebastian teaching baby Caleb to walk
Caleb about 11 months old.

Yes, son, I do see you on the counter.



Baby Caleb, about 10 months old.



Our VERY boring dining room.


There is a secret contest to go with this post. It is so secret that I can't even tell you the rules- but you may figure it out anyway- If you're really sharp.
The prize? Think chocolate.

Does it have to do with dancing on the counter tops? Cause I'll totally do that to win chocolate.
