renovations







It all started out with a birthday wish, i asked Tim for a new fancy shmancy frying pan for my birthday from costco. Well, it turns out i was spoiled with a gift certificate to a flooring store instead. So i picked out new lino to rid myself of the sad-pulled apart hard to clean laminate flooring i had before. Well after the lino quote tim asked if we should go for a fireplace quote seeing the floor was out anyway why not keep renoing? right? WRONG! now i have a wall coming out, the part above the kitchen cuboards is out, the trim is all going, the tile in the bathroom is being stripped out and new paint goes on next week. I am the most spoiled girl on this side of Ponoka, maybe all the east side of hwy 2 even! Anyway here are a few pics for you to enjoy! Maybe next year if i ask for the frying pan again i'll get a new lawnmower.....hey a girl can dream right?

  1. Hmmm, i need a frying pan too...and some baking trays. Now I'm afraid to ask as I have seen what such a request can do to a person's house. SCARY!

  2. EXCITING! That's all I can say. I am not sure that all the mess is that fun when you are in it...but I actually LOVE painting and fixing things up! Can't wait to see it all. Pictures will probably have to suffice....next February is a long time away.
