Updates!

Ok, so I got a new position at BB&T where I will be moving to the East branch in front of target and have my own office! It is the bilingual branch so watch out amigos! Kyle and I are putting the house on the market tomorrow. I wanted to post a few more pics of the inside in progress and all finished up, but I have not taken a picture of the finished outside yet. It looks so good! (I hope to post one of the outside soon though...but then you know how I am.)

The Renovations continue...

Well there isn't too much else going on, so here are the newest construction pics. The first ones are the bathroom Kyle added to the house. The next ones are of the bathroom that he gutted and is now redoing. It's been a longer process than we thought, but it is turning out so beautiful. Well, Kyle got the boat running about a month ago, so we have been going to the lake on Sundays. It is nice to take one day off a week and have some fun. Anytime anyone visits and wants to take out the boat or the jet ski's, give us a call. I bought some little kid life jackets so we are ready to bring out the family! Hope everyone is doing well. I will post again a little sooner next time.

House updates and more!

So I am halfway through this real estate licensing class. I have to take 75 classroom hours and then pass the State test to become a provisional broker. I just want to be able to save us money as we flip houses and find better deals too! I'm still going to finish my Masters degree with less than a year to go! Well, here are some pictures of our fabulously completed kitchen. Notice the hanging lights, the tile backsplash, new white appliances (except the older fridge), the new cabinets, the ceramic tile floor, and the white cast iron special order sink! All done for about $4000 (and a month of Kyle's hard work of course)! We also added a beautiful and large back porch but my camera batteries have died so Icould not get a picture of that on here yet. We have a ways to go but have now started on the demo of a fireplace where the new living room will be. It is going to be amazing!

That's Beach'n!

First are some pictures from Busch Gardens. Then there are some of Kyle and Aaron fishing at the Beach. Both of them caught a catfish, but did not have any further luck. We had a great time with Aaron and Kathy. Their place was so nice and they are very hospitable. Busch gardens was fun and Fort Myers is beautiful. With the exception of about 100 sand flea bites that I got while there, I had the best time! Can't wait to visit again.

Home Improvement Progress

Above are some pictures as the kitchen was before, when we first moved in.

Below are some pics of the kitchen as we remodel it. Kyle moved a new entryway into what will be the living room and closed off two other doors. He made the entryways into the kitchen archways so it is fancy. It was a lot of extra work but it looks beautiful and it payed off. He removed all the old dingy cabinets and we have just finished staining and painting the new ones with clear shine. Counter tops and tile floor is next! These are pics of the progress.

Construction Zone

Saw dust and drywall dust cover just about every inch of our house. It is amazing how far and fast that stuff travels. Our house could be called a construction zone. Renovations are coming along nicely, and our house is going to look great when we are finished. When we are done I will post before and after pictures.

Anyways, we are heading down to visit Aaron in Florida soon. We are looking forward to a nice vacation and visit.

I will update the blog with more pictures and info later. Stay tuned!

Updates

We have moved into the new house and construction is coming along. I am still working on my Master's degree and will be done next spring. As for Kyle, he is about to take the General Contracting test. We will update again soon!
