Living Room Remodel

Our living room was once a huge mess with the old, ugly carpet that was in there. Finally, we found the time to rip it out thinking that we would put a laminate down. We luckily found beautiful hardwood that looked like it was in perfect shape to re-do. Here is the process:



Starting out
After sanding for an entire day
One coat of stain
Adding and painting floor boards as well as old base board heaters and walls. 


Finally finished! One week of hard labor paid off!

About Me













Ok..... 
So, I am finally jumping on board with this blogger madness! I am constantly finding more and more blogs that I absolutely fall in love with.  I have read so many blogs that inspire me on a daily basis, and I have always thought that it would be a great outlet for myself. It is, for sure, more than confusing at first. And, I am by no means a pro at this. So please stick with me and see what happens! 

A bit of info about myself:

I am a third generation Montanan, born and raised in Red Lodge.  After briefly moving away, I found myself back in this wonderful little ski town again. My husband and I are now raising a beautiful daughter in this close-knit, cozy, peaceful place. And I couldn't be happier. 

I am a work-from-home mom, either working at home or bringing Haley, my daughter, into another office with me. I am the luckiest ever. Even though it gets a little hectic at times, being with my little one while working is the best. 

In my spare time there are more than enough things to keep me busy. I am always finding something to change about our home or find fun projects to do with Haley. We bought our home almost four years ago, and I am constantly wanting to change something everyday it seems. I have had many dreams about what I want this house to look like ever since we moved in. We have updated a lot since we have been here, but there is so much left! So, I will be posting all of my projects on here as well as crafts, food and whatever else my heart desires! 

I hope you enjoy! 



With Love, 

Mackenzie
