Finally

What a crazy last few months! We have taken on the biggest project either of us have ever done and we are finally finished, we just have a few last finishing touches! We have completely renovated our basement apartment. Our tenants moved out the beginning of June and when we went through the apartment after, we found that it was worse than we had remembered when we bought the house. It was just so old and in some dire need of updating. So we deciding to put the money that we had been saving for our master bathroom into the basement instead. Ryan's brother Sean came out the first week and helped us rip out the old kitchen and put the new one in as well as the flooring. Him and Ryan worked so hard that week staying up til 1 in the morning some nights. We are so lucky to have had Sean's help. Ryan and I have worked so hard over the last 2 months, so many countless hours and I feel like I have had no life outside of work. We were hoping to have it finished a few weeks ago, but with Ryan finishing up his school semester and so many other things going on it was hard. We've put an add online and are hoping to find some renters in the next week or so. So if you know anyone in need of an apartment, let us know.

Now that it's finished and I've taken some pictures, I'm completely regretting not taking any pictures before and during the project. I have a picture of the old kitchen but nothing else. But I can tell you now that it looks 100% better than before.

Sean was awesome and put in our backsplash for us in our kitchen while he was here! 


Sean and Ryan also installed our new front door, it still needs to be stained but we love it! 

As for an update on our only child, he weighed in at 75 lbs last night. 
He still thinks he's little and can fit through everything
