So he bought the one we live in now. It was horrible, but for some reason I saw lots of potential. With him being a licensed contractor we went to work. I learned more than I had bargained for, but the end result is fabulous. It feels so good to know that you did the work. Atleast for me it is very satisfying. <br />You have a gorgeous home. Love it. <br />TFSScrappy Pink Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12467160468518899614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859743855906273917.post-57966278243155835242012-01-25T20:14:28.093-07:002012-01-25T20:14:28.093-07:00Your home is charming and I love the yard.Your home is charming and I love the yard.Kim @ Savvy Southern Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12493624262438266840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859743855906273917.post-66537938574866736172012-01-25T19:06:10.768-07:002012-01-25T19:06:10.768-07:00Your home is gorgeous!

We did a kitchen reno a few years ago and had hardwood extended through our main level. We only had to partially live in the basement for 3 months. We still had all the bedrooms on the second floor we could go to. My husband is not handy with tools either, so I can picture what his look would be if I wanted the same house. Love what you have done with the landscaping, it it beautiful.
