Our new Home Flagstaff, Arizona!!

We have found a house in Flagstaff that as Erin puts it has "great potential", which I interpret as a very long honey do list. First up, I started building all the furniture for the master bedroom. I scored some awesome Walnut off an ad in the paper so it's all solid Walnut!!

We are moving to Arizona

We have decided to pick up and move closer to our families on the west coast. Haven't found a new house yet but I am sure we will find a house that we can add our own touches to. It sad that we are leaving this house so soon after getting it the way we liked it but being closer to family is really important to Erin and I.

Downstairs Bathroom

I can't find any pictures of our original downstairs bathroom but I can tell you that we demolished the entire thing and started over from scratch. Here are a few pictures. I don't think I want to do and tiling for a while. The tiling seemed to drag on forever!!

Kitchen project

We had a pretty good kitchen to start with but we were desperate to get rid of the drop ceiling and add some lighting. I added some can lights and remove the existing sofit above the cabinets so Erin could do some decorating. Here are some pictures of the progress.

Drop ceiling and sofit gone




New ceiling fan.

I built this drop down table, so we could have a place to eat when it is just the two of us, so we don't have to eat in the dining room all the time. Oh and we add our version of a pot rack. Found these rods at Ikea for $5 each and decided to hang them from the ceiling for the pots.

Don't quite know what I was doing in this picture but you get the idea of the table.

I tiled the new backsplash and we got new granite counter tops, which Erin may love more than me!!

All done and decorated!! We think it turned out pretty great!!
