Fresh sod and dirty boots. Signs of a productive day!🙌🏻 I’m here for it!
.

I had doubts, but I’m glad we’re DIY-ing the yard because I love the satisfaction of a hard day’s work! And now I know every bump and valley throughout the entire yard from raking and shoveling them all!😅
.
.
More sod going down tomorrow. And hopefully some plants for new flower beds next week!🌸

It still blows my mind, at 32 years of age, that you can drive 3 hours in one direction and be in a totally different world. How cool is that?!

We’re in Cut Off, LA (the boot!) this week taping an episode of @todayshomeowner and it’s so fun to get to experience a different culture!

Have you ever been to Cajun country?

Our Front Door Is Installed!👏🏻I’ve craved a door like this for over 5 years. Lots of glass and light-colored wood. I have lots of similar doors saved in my camera roll to prove it. I’m so happy it’s finally mine!
.
.
This was the first choice I made on our exterior renovation. All other choices were made because they compliment this door. Like I really like it a lot!😍But also you have to start somewhere with all of the decisions in a renovation, make one choice that will influence the rest.
.
.
Cannot wait to get it sealed and protected from the elements so it’ll last for a looonnnnggg time!🤩

Do you think Lucy is a natural with the camera?😆No coaching necessary!

It hit me last night. THIS is the house my kids will grow up in. This will be the background to their memories. They won’t remember the broken tile, unpainted handrails or all of the works in progress like they’ll remember how their home made them feel.
.
.
They don’t need anything fancy, just a place to let their imaginations run wild.🌿I’m praying to keep that in mind with all of the decisions I’ve yet to make during this renovation process! If they can’t fully live here, neither can I.🥰
