This Old House

 Oh this old house indeed. We live in a massive, old house. Built in 1902 actually. Anyone that knows us knows that we are constantly and continuously working on this old house. It's always something....tearing down walls, building walls, painting, flooring, plumbing. But aside from all the work, we love this old house. We have made it into a home. Oh how I wish we had before and after pictures. But for now I do have 1 room of before/after. The upstairs bathroom is our latest project. Here is the before
Scary I know!!

And the after
Awww. That's more like it!!

All this before and after got me thinking. Because this old house is ever changing I thought I would document how it looks now. Actually this pictures were around Halloween time (you'll see paper bats in the dining room) but you'll get the idea. I'm sure even next year things will look much different. I thought it might be neat for the girls to look back on and see how they were living in 2011-2012 .I don't have pictures of all the rooms sorry. I'm missing the entire basement, our room, the upstairs hallway, the half bath and our staircase. (Maybe I can get that in the next edition of "This Old House" :)  So this is "this old house" Fogive any "messes" you may see. I didn't get our house "picture ready" for this..lol. This is just how we live and things aren't always perfect around this old house. :)
