the house has some fun original details that we are going to work with, like some of the light fixtures. I actually really like these.

This long wall that separates the family room and living room will come out and also this stair-step wall. I love the front doors. They are so heavy...
It has been a long, stressful, crazy, and exciting process… We are finally moving. I am so excited about the house we found. This is our final home. We are never moving again. (Knock on Wood). We really wanted something that we could make our own. I love the idea of an older home with...
