A MEGA-BLOG FOR OUR HOUSE-A-VERSARY

July 24, 2011

Upon much contemplation (or just thinking about it for about 3 minutes), I realized that our actual house anniversary was yesterday, July 23, 2011. So, my blog on the 21st was pointless, but hey, that's what you get when you request more blogs.

So, on this one year and one day anniversary of buying this money pit/the one year anniversary of actually starting work on the house, we present a MEGA-BLOG to you (you should imagine that the words "mega-blog" are being said in a deep voice with some sort of reverb and flashing lights).

First, here is a picture from July 24, 2010, the first day we started work:
