1 year.

October marks one year that we have been in our house!  This past year we have had so much fun with all our DIY projects and making our house really feel like our home.  I am still amazed at how handy Steve is and feel lucky that he enjoys this house stuff as much as I do!  It has certainly turned into a hobby for us.  Here is a rough estimate of some  updates we have completed and some fun "before and after/progress" pictures.

During our first year as home owners we...

changed 13 light fixtures

painted 12 rooms

changed 21 door hinges

replaced 9 door knobs

updated 6 rooms with new flooring

replaced 4 faucets

replaced 1 kitchen sink

painted trim in 7 rooms

removed 3 bushes

planted 4 new trees

landscaped 1 front yard

refinished 1 kitchen table

painted 28 kitchen cabinets and 7 drawers

refinished 3 bathroom vanities

painted 1 front porch

installed 1 closet organizer

And more to come in year 2!

  1. Way to go, Team Gardner! Hehe...I was pleasantly surprised that Andy was so useful around the house, too. :-P Guess Papa Gardner must have taught them well!
