A Little Home Updating...

Our roof was in desperate need of replacement. Not only is it 26-ish years old, but it also endured the wrath of last September's wind storm when we lost 15+ shingles. So, with the blessing from our home insurance agency we were able to get a much needed new roof!!

Old roof--with old windows as well. And those granny bushes out front ;o)

New Roof!! Don't mind the white primer around the window--we just got new windows this summer and Eric hasn't gotten time to paint our house yet ;o) I think we'll go with a color that's lighter brown that will match the brick on our house and also go with the roof. I'm not crazy about the industrial gray...or the purple door ;o). Although, we've also been considering siding the house instead? Stay tuned. ;)

The old roof had some water damage on the lower right hand corner too, which was causing some problems for us ....

Water damage fixed!! Man, that window is awful--can't wait to do something with it!!

We also recently remodeled our half bathroom. This project has been in the works since we moved in almost 3 years ago!!!!! Aahhhhh--I guess that's what happens when you're husband is busy fixing up everyone else's houses ;o). I love, love, love the colors we chose for this bathroom. After 3 tries we finally found exactly what we were looking for to compliment the hardware and woodwork in the bathroom. It was fun!! We are not 100% finished yet though...we are still going to replace the vanity. I think I've finally found the one I want for the best price ... we'll see. :)

Old bathroom--we removed lots of WALLPAPER from these walls.... yuck, not fun.

Old light fixtures. . .

New Bathroom!!

New mirror, light fixture, and towel ring ...

I love these colors ... so warm & cozy ;o)
