Kitchen, New Stairs and Mom requests a photo retake!

They worked to bring the kitchen addition to life this week..first the floor... Then the old roof comes off.. Note: Big opening on the right is for a giant window..but first they will bring in the famous island through this section! (the island has had many moving adventures so far-stay tuned for its last big move) There is an exciting spot framed in the roof where a skylight will go in! Friday they cut in the new stairs! Long ago in our Saugus house renovation we had another set of unfinished stairs which were directly inside our front door. I had been out coaching basketball and little Kelly was home with Greg, who had put himself to bed, but she decided to wait up for me to come home. Eventually, exhaustion won, and this is what I came home to. I can't look at a set of unfinished stairs and not see this picture..I am hoping Kelly will consider a quick trip home to reenact the photo?

Plans!

We have spent the last several months working with a great architect, Jake Keeler, to dream about what our house could become. Katie & Charlie were very involved in the process. When the plans came and we saw the elevation page with the existing house and the new house, Katie said it made our original house look like a Home Depot Shed...so hence the name of the blog! I will attempt to document the process and my goal will be more pictures that writing as I anticipate it will be a very hectic time. We do love our existing house, it just needs a few more bedrooms, some curb appeal and a bigger kitchen. Here's a photo of our house with the treehouse Greg built, note how the treehouse is almost taller!

Plowing the front yard!

Our builder came and plowed the front yard. The neighbors probably thought we had lost our minds having the yard plowed, so luckily he then began bringing a few things by...each day more fun items arrive on our front lawn. The items can be especially fun if you are an 11 year old boy and you have a friend visit after a trip to the skating pond! They had to climb up the ladder to the top! If you happen to watch HGTV Big Country Built is the same builder from the story below...
