Over the summer, we bought an old house. Since then we've been in a renovation marathon working out the details of the many repairs and improvements in order to make the home safe and habitable for our small family. It has been crazy, but so nice to finally own a home and be able to make it our own after living in rentals for a LONG time. Wish us luck. *[Drawing below by my 2-year-old son perfectly captures the essence of our summer.]
