Renovation

Since December 1st we've been in the midst of a renovation. It has been quite disruptive and busy! We decided to add a bathroom/bedroom to the first floor in the front room. Currently Eleanor and Jane share a room and Ben and Rosie share a room and we decided it was time for Eleanor and Jane to have some of their own space:

Day 1

Day 2: they started cutting the wall open because we were putting in a door (rather than just an wide opening) and we found a Hardee's cup in the wall from the 1980s when the house was built!

They also started framing in the bathroom at the back of the room.

What started the renovation process though were our upstairs bathrooms...so those are currently underway! More on that soon.

Bowling

Last year on a random day off school we headed down to Ikea and ended up bowling on the way home. We decided to run it back since we had such a great time!
