House Fix Ups

Hubby was able to make it up on the roof today to fill the big hole we discovered when we finally got up into our attic a couple of weeks ago. As we stood there admiring the vast amount of wasted space in our attic, you have to crawl up through Trinity's Closet so we have never been up there. We noticed there was light coming in, there was a gap of about 6 inches in length along a seam. Hubby and my Dad got up on the roof tonight and filled the gap with some expanding foam so hoping this will fix the issue.

Let the light Shine

Our new bedroom is really starting to come together, of course we still have lot's left to do but we are making progress. My family is here for the weekend and my Dad is planning on helping hubby run some electrical so we can have a few new plugs to use and possibly a light in the walk in closet/make up room. They were out this morning to get supplies but Jay's party ran a little extra long and the race is on tonight so the project will have to wait until tommorrow. With any luck they won't blow up or burn down the house.

MAKING MORE PROGRSS ON THE FAMILY ROOM



It seems like every spare minute we can find we are down working in the family room trying to get it finished by spring. The walls are going up rather quick and the crack filling is getting done but slowly because we want it done right. We aren't sure if we will just paint the walls or use a textured paint to help hide any mistakes that might show through but if it is done right then paint should be all we will need. Hopefully by the end of the weekend we will get the primer put on the walls which will help make it look better.


The fireplace in my computer room is still waiting to be finished. I am going to put ceramic tile around the electric insert and add some decorative mouldings around as well. For now Blake will have to enjoy the heat the way it is right now. (he gets standing in front of the heat from me)
