House is looking great!!!!   Floors are getting dialed, walls are coming together… have some cooling going on…  Things are looking awesome and I suspect Audrey will be moving in in a month or so…. 😎

Lots of energy going into this!!!!!  😎  Great stuff!

Dang! What an awesome project this has been. So cool that you had the opportunity to buy a fixer-upper like this for your first home, Audrey. And right down the street from the best VW shop on the planet, no less! Location, location, location!

wallpaper… we looove you… 🤪

got it all stripped down finally…under floor Plumbing got all finished up in the back too so we can put the floor down 👍🏻
lots patching on ceilings and near base boards needed 👍🏻 The base boards are nailed right into the Adobe so the ones we had to pull off brought some of the wall with them… 
Also patching up the Adobe on the outside where needed 👍🏻
now that plumbing is looking good, they can cut the back door higher and put the rest of the back floor down too! 👍🏻

The house is going well!! We’ve had a pretty busy month at KCW so we took a little break and are back on it for a little while until we can start doing things ourself!!

The back roof over what used to be the porch fell in last week after a huge rain storm came through… bummer… but glad it happened before I lived there and we had it all finished and looking nice!! 😅

So last week and this week have been spent doing some roof repairs and drywall repairs… plus finishing up other drywall through the house 👍🏻

All the below floor plumbing is finished so the floor could be covered! Framing for walls in the bathroom and laundry are going up too!

Audrey’s new home is getting close…. Close to painting on the inside!!!  After hanging out at the Harts house this weekend… I am ready to invest in a pool at Audrey’s house…. 😎 😎  With a hot tub, with heat, a nice one, oasis in Audrey’s back yard!  I can’t do it here 😎

HELL YEAH!!! You KNOW I’m down for that!! I’ve always wanted a pool!!! I’ll split you JJ!!!!

the house is definetly coming along!!! We had to slow down a little this last month while we had so many events going on, but the progress is coming along!!
Scott’s been doing some of the interior trim around the windows too 😍 it’s looking sooo good! Just waiting for electricians to come before we totally finish the drywall 👍🏻The guys are finishing up a few loose ends and moving out most of their stuff so we can start painting and putting flooring in soon!

house is still coming along!! The electrical is almost all roughed in!!!

drywall is almost all the way done… and  we bought flooring to put down once we finish painting! 🥳

the kitchen cabinets were delivered and we found a sweet deal on a fridge and microwave… all you need, right? 😉

I love how the windows came out 😍

SO proud of my two favorite ladies!!!!!   This house is a giant leap forward for Audrey in life… and I am sooo happy for her!!! 😎  😎 😎

Stable safe housing very near close family, she can’t get kicked out, rent can’t go up, just another complication in life dealt with… 😎  One less thing to worry about….

and when we get the cash for a pool…. oh man.. it’s on!!!  😎
