There is a new stress in my life right now. One that comes with both bonuses and not so many bonuses. But all will be wonderful and amazing. The husband, the Bug and I will be embarking on a new journey in our lives as home renovators and restorers.
Just before Thanksgiving, Jason’s parents and aunt had proposed an offer to us. One that we honestly could not pass up. We have been offered to move in and take over residence of Jason’s Grandparents’ home. This home is incredible in every manner of the word. It was built in the ’60′s by Jason’s family. Literally from the ground up. They made the bricks to make the house. It is a true and traditional adobe home.
Ultimately, I am planning on creating a blog to show the pit falls and successes of renovating and restoring this home to its truest splendor. Keeping all of the wonderful family heirlooms intact that we can, there will be some updating, upgrading and some modernizing. But with as much taste and dignity as we know the home deserves.
So. Let the blogging begin. I’ll keep you posted.
Until Later,
~MJ
