Lakewood Halloween

We have an awesome private park by our house and the neighborhood gets together to put on a Halloween party in the park. Even though we haven't moved into our house yet we still joined in on the fun. Here are some pictures below.

Remodel with the Kids

In order to make the remodel work Johnny or I would put the kids to bed each night at my parents house and then work on the new house from 9 to midnight every night for about 6 weeks. It was crazy but so worth it. We learned that we can pretty much to anything if you put your mind to it. We tried to involve the kids when we could. Below are some pictures of Pennington helping out.

New House

In August we started looking for a new house and after looking at a few place and putting an offer in on another house we decided to purchase our home on Chickory.

It's in a great neighborhood, close to downtown, close to family and right where we wanted to be.

The only draw back was it is a 1970's house that needed a lot of updating. Below are the before pictures.

Please note we have updated the house since then. It looks much better now.
