With moving day just two weeks away we are busting our a$$e$ like you can’t imagine. It’s been one month and this is what we have accomplished so far…
Yeah, yeah, I noticed the “founting” typo after I closed Pic Monkey – I ain’t going back.
Hoping to get some ducks and a goose – that old concrete cistern will be the duck pond.
Gotta love the Bear Grylls knife, huh?
Daddy and Babes finishing the run today. Heading out first thing Saturday a.m. to pick up the chickens.
Yard next to the potager – future site of the pool.
Word.
We move in two weeks from tomorrow?
Do you think we can get-er-done?
Here’s hoping.
So happy to have you on this journey with us! Pin it and follow along as we take this little farm from drab to fab!
I am seriously impressed! The transformation of the wood floors…..they are gorgeous.
I am so happy for you and your family, Angela! How great that your garden is coming along. I really enjoyed the pics. The baby is SO big now!!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Ang, would you mind sharing with us your floor paint brand and type, etc. I have painted many of my wood floors upstairs and hoping for a better outcome as they really are now showing the wear and tare 🙂
thanks!
i still am in shock at all the work you have gotten done… oh my word girl
Oh your home and garden are going to be amazing!! The chickens will be sooo much fun. Can’t wait to see more!!!
So happy for you.
Wow awesome!you all must sleep well at night!
I have really been looking forward to this post,and miss more frequent post!
Love love love that you brought your garden!!
which blog is you mama’s? i want to go back and look at her summer porch and can’t remember which one she is on my blog list?!
thanks girly.
I have read your blog for a little while, but long enough to see that you guys are amazing! I am totally ‘wowed’ by how much work has been done so far, and the plans you have for the future. I’m sticking around to see it all happen!
Wow – amazing amount of work done. I appreciate all the time and work involved having done smaller scale renos on previous houses. Everything is starting to look bright and like it can finally breathe again! You may want to rethink the duck pond. They will be pooping in there lots and unless you can drain and clean it easily it could be a stinking mess come summer. Jus’ saying …. Love the wine bottles and glasses – it’s what every reno needs to get through it! Patty/BC
I love the enthusiasm… It will get it done!
The photos of the children are the best though!
You will always look back and see them in this house at that age!!!
Best and a Beautiful week to you…
Gather your family up for pumpkin pie after dinner out at the farm and bless the farm with your family and take a photo of your first well… almost first Thanksgiving!
xo,

Beautiful post!
Wow you really have gotten alot done! We move into our new house in 1 1/2 weeks!! Enjoy!
It is fun to see the progress.
Wow…you guys have made great progress!! It all looks wonderful, enjoy living the dream!
Your hard work is showing fantastic progress. I can’t wait to see move in week!
Ang- those white painted floors are “to die for” gorgeous. Love where you are heading with that room! Can’t wait to see the chickens in their new home. Susan@Romancing the Home
WOW!
I see I’ve missed a LOT during my extended blogging break!
How exciting for you, Angela!!!
Looking good, my friend. 🙂
XOXO,
Anne
I am amazed at the transformation you are making there! How you manage to do so much with four little ones is impressive to me. I can only manage to get the laundry and grocery shopping done with Michaela. Many, many things have gone undone here for quite a while.
I can’t wait to see more!
Holy wow. This makes me want a farm SO badly! Great progress! 🙂
so very cool…loved seeing the transformation and can’t wait for more pics! You guys are doing a fantastic job!!!
Those floors. *sigh* Someday.
I’m so excited for you, sat and smiled during this entire post! I’m super envious right now about the chickens…you are all going to flourish here! 🙂 You are ready! donna
this is so so exciting Angela!!
So happy for you!

I love your blog and all of the progress you’ve made on your new home and wish you the very best with making all your dreams come true.
I am enjoying reading about your progress on the farm. Keep us posted.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the floors. I tried to get my husband to do this in the last house we were in. I seriously want to buy an old farmhouse JUST so I can paint the ratty, old hardwood floors.
They are beautiful AND the garden is swoon worthy and it doesn’t even have anything planted.
XOXO
Your family is amazing! I’m so proud of you two and the little ones. I love to see that energy and passion and look forward to following the progress. I knew the potager would be a priority even though spring seems a long way off. And the wine “cooler” next to the spray cleaning bottle? Love it!
I am loving it. Enjoying this play by play so much, wish you were on one of the reality shows and you got paid for it. Can’t wait for more before and afters. Best Wishes.
Wow! That is an amazing amount of progress in a short amount of time!! Everything thing looks so great. You are really making a lovely home! Looking forward to what’s next!
I am not very familiar with the sod roof. What is the reason for doing it or is it primarily for the pleasing look?
it’s looking fantastic…very you! the floors without carpet…beautiful! hope you get your sod roof!
Holy cow! Amazing! Gorgeous! Beautiful! Fabulous! Way to rock it out girl, and with the family’s help too! Jealous? TOTALLY, but I am so happy for you!
Girl, you guys are kicking butt! Congrats, you may NEVER want to leave after you’re done, who knows maybe the landlord will sell to you down the road, one can wish, huh?! Your kids will LOVE it there, so much yard to play in. Glad the timing of plants transplant worked out for you. But I know the hard work in remodeling, we JUST got done our remodeling which I’ve been posting as well, the accomplishments are amazing.

BTW- My Casa Bella is Arlene..:)
Angela,
There’s no doubt that when you have your mind set on doing something—IT GETS DONE!
Your coop–wonderful!
The beginnings of your potager–can’t wait to see it this coming spring!
Your porch–gonna be a lot of fun to decorate!
Your painted wood floors- GORGEOUS!
I can’t help but be a little jealous, how I wish I could paint ours…probably not going to happen in this house!
You and Joel have been working like crazy, and I know you are so thankful for his willingness to make your dreams come true!
