To start, let us apologize to all of those who have checked our blog periodically over the past six months only to be disappointed. We are officially the worst bloggers in the world, and you know what, we are okay with that.
A lot has happened since we last blogged so instead of overwhelling you with every detail, I am going to give you a quick time line. From February to June we have celebrated Camryn's 1st birthday, spent a month working in Sulpher Springs, spent two weeks in working Mt. Pleasant, traveled back and forth working in Longview for two months, went to Nashville for Justin's wedding, went to college station to recruit, bought a house, went to Dallas to visit Tyson & Sarah, and made the journey out to Abilene for a quick trip.
Wait a second did he say "bought a house"? That's right, for those of you who haven't heard, Katie and I are moving. We move into our new house on July 1st and have already started to draw up plans for remodeling/renovating if you can believe that.
The house was built in 1951 and if you have been to our current home, you might notice this house isn't a whole lot different. The new house has the same hardwood floors through out, wood windows, and the exact same trim and baseboards that are in our current home. The only major difference is the new place sits on almost 1 acre, and is a bit larger with a second living area and a formal dinning room which we are lacking currently.
I mentioned earlier that we have already started making plans to remodel and this probably doesn't come as a huge surprise to some of you. I won't go into a lot of detail at this time, we have plans to blog about the remodel every step of the way with plenty of pictures, so for now I will just tell you that the kitchen is getting some major attention and the master bath for a lack of a better word will be "gutted". We did however make a first purchase today that will go towards the remodel.
We picked up this piece of marble at a remnant sale that will be the top of our 6x4 foot kitchen island. Hope you enjoyed the pics and catching up on what has been going on with us over the last few months. We promise to be better about blogging from here on out. Look forward to some good remodel blogs coming soon and feel free to come see the new place after we move in.
