Talk about an exhausting weekend!! Thursday we signed our life away to own 5815 Hummingbird in Houston and Friday we got our keys! We were like giddy schoolchildren that day, running around the house and backyard (champagne in hand) and thinking about all the fun things we'll do to the house. Saturday - we got to work. We decided the wallpaper in the breakfast area had to go, Eric & Emily came over to help and we discovered more wallpaper under wallpaper! It has been ther since the house was built in 1960! That bottom layer was not as easy to pull off and took us nearly 24 hours to get it done! I gave up on Saturday night and began caulking the living room wood paneling and doing yard work. You'll see above Sam being way more patient than me to get the job done! It's now all down to the drywall and our contractor is at the house starting this morning to start some other demolition jobs. Marley loved the house and the yard, he's exhausted and wouldn't even get up when I left for work this morning! We're sore from head to toe but it's such an amazing feeling knowing that this is our house, we're making this our home and it's all ours!!!
