as i type this a lot has happened in the past few weeks ... so many changes everywhere in the jplusn house
first off we worked our butts off for months and finally made progress in the finishing of major parts of the house ... still didn't get all of it finished but that's what our happy helpers are for (thanks again guys we really couldn't have done this if it wasn't for you)
as you can see all of our doors now have handles and it is so lovely to hear a click as the door smoothly closes
we finally found a light at the home depot to fill the entrance way ... we got to enjoy it for about a day and then we were gone ... something to enjoy when we get back
our master ensuite has all it bits and pieces in place ... i didn't get a chance to snap a pic of the drywall progress but oh well
of course one of the biggest changes was the exterior of the house ... j's uncle strapped the house and got it ready for it's extreme makeover
then we filled the spaces with blue styrofoam boards to help up the insulation factor on the house ... it already feels warm and cozy
next some amazing james hardie board siding to amp up the drama on the house ... we hadn't heard of it until about 3 weeks ago and i must say it is gorgeous ... the perfect color, the most amazing grain to it and the beauty of this is it looks like wood but it's cement board so no maintenance ... yeah!
the start of something beautiful ... the dormers are going to be the same siding as the bottom of the house and then the triangle parts are going to get a lighter tan color and some vertical pieces to give it a nice contrast ... i'm sure it will look great when it's finished ... this is where j and n exhaustedly left canada, boarded a plane ...
and as i type this ... this is what is now outside my hotel room window ... we are in london for some time while n gets to start her master's in education and international development at the institute of education
