Here's what we had to work with:
A real eye catcher :)
View from the front door
We had 10 golden days between the end of our lease and getting the keys to our castle, so we worked like dogs, and with the help of our fabulous friends and family, cleaned, painted, and floored the ENTIRE place.
Our bestie friends Ryan and Denay painting in the Fire Place Room.
Nathan (above) had on an, "Extreme Makeover Home Edition"shirt, haha. That's certainly what it felt like!
My sweetie, Jason, performing the Dance of the Painter's Tape.
...and me, praying I'd make it to the end.
Did we survive?
Did our friends hate us after all their slave labor help?
What does it look like after all that work??
