Big News

I finally received the big news today...I have officially been given the title: Distinguished Teacher. It is quite the process, but one I am pleased I went through. I was offered the opportunity last year, and decided to wait one more year. I have only been teaching 3 years (finishing my 3rd year), so I feel very honored! Lots of hard work, but all worth it in the end.

The Remodel Continues...

The kitchen has officially started. It is the final stage in the "initial" remodel phase. We have officially completed, Halee's room, Christian's room, Master Bedroom, Stairway (hallway), Living room, Dining room, Sunroom, and half bath on main level. The only other "summer" project will be the girl's bathroom and all of the doors in the house: taken off, sanded, hardware cleaned since it has all been painted by previous owner, and put back on. The doors have original hardware, which is suited for the skeleton keys. We love it. So here are some pictures.
