In November of 2006 Les and I bought a home in Rose Park (built in 1948) that needed "a little love". As Les walked through it for the first time, even in the state that it was in (as shown in the photos below), he knew this was where we needed to move. All of our family and friends thought we were crazy when they saw it for the first time - pre-remodel. But, for some reason we were never phased by the huge task we had before us. Les had no previous experience nor interest in home remodeling. So, armed with a book from the library, Lowe's Home Improvement, he started the job - very determined to figure things out for himself.
After 3 months of renovations, many long days, late nights, and many thousands of dollars later we moved into our new house!! Here are a few before and afters.

There is of course more work to be done. We haven't really altered the outside of the house much yet or the yard. That will have to come in time. But for now, we love our new house.
