Just a simple family of five living in Iowa. We have decided to move from the city to the country. This is a journey of changes for our whole family. We are leaving the hectic & loud traffic behind and heading to the peacefulness of an old gravel road.

Wood Floors
On the main floor of the house has the original wood flooring in the LR, DR, hall, and 2 BR's.
They were in bad shape but I really wanted to use them so I rented a floor sander and got to work on them. Then I had to hand sand all the edges. There was several pieces that had cracked and a few gouges here and there, but I think that adds charcter so I didn't try to fix that. Now I will clean them up and get ready for the stain and finish.

Youngest daughter's room
Part of the open attic has been transitioned into my youngest daughters bedroom.
I didn't take a picture before we started, but it was just an open attic with no floor or any thing.
Here it is with a skylight installed, drywall hung, and subfloor installed.
And here it is with the drywall finished and painted.
All that's left is to hang the new light, and install carpet!
And she loves her new room, she tells me everytime we go out there!!
