Clean Sweep

its a dirty job but somebody has to do it...when we bought this house we inherited everything in it, the good the bad and the ugly

how does that saying go...they took everything but the kitchen sink...well in our case they left us everything even their old kitchen sink...

he claims hes working and trimming up the tree, but it looks like he just needed an excuse to dust off his rock climbing gear

 

clean storage room..I can't wait to knock down that wall!!!

  

how much junk can you pull out of a small storage room..ALOT

 

clean kitchen..see the wall behind the stove..that's the wall we will knock down to get rid of that storage room behind it and make the kitchen larger with a lake view!

keep pile!

Working hard...or hardly working...

we did stumble upon on some diamonds in the rough...cant wait to go cruisin on these babies!

old oil and snuff can...i love old junk

some type of game from Switzerland...anyone know how to play this, let me know?

antique wind chime found by mom while racking the yard...it still makes a great sound

Ring of Fire

and the clean up begins...

 

the overgrown lake view...

 

we cut it down down down....

and the flames went higher...

and it burns burns burns...

the ring of fire, the ring of fire...

Go Jump In The Lake

So.... I have been meaning to start a blog for quite some time now.  I figured now that my job is the busiest its ever been, and I am taking 3 grad classes, and my husband and I have just bought a Lake House, or what will one day be a lake house, I would have pleeeenty of time to blog..ha ha ha.

Since I am avoiding doing homework I have decided to begin my blog by documenting the flip of our Lake House!  I have contemplated showing anyone the "before" photos because I am afraid that they will think we are crazy for purchasing this house, but then I was watching HGTV and saw way worse houses people were taking on... so i can do this right????  So you will just have to trust me that this house will become our perfect lake retreat and you really cant beat the view!!!

The BEFORE Photos...dhun dhun duhnnn

                                                             The Back of the house...

Our shed... I am scared to find out whats in there

The Bedroom / Living / Dining Room...

 

 Kitchen...

                                                           Master Bath...Fancy i know

Front Room...I think we may need a new roof, what do you think?

 

Yikes!

Not really sure what this room is but it was used for storage and it has the lake view...i dont understand either...

 

I know I know it looks really scary, but don't think we are crazy because check out the view!!!!!
