Our ancestors built their dream house in 1961. We got our hands on it in 1999 and have only just now decided to document our renovations online for the rest of the clan to see. Oh, family and crafty happenings will show up here from time to time, too.

Holey Walls!
Here is WH taking his turn at filling holes in the wall. I hope/aspire/am striving to get these walls patched, smooth and primed before hitting the sack tonight so that I can size and paper some of them tomorrow.
Some of us would miss this toilet in the night if it weren't here and so we have this scheme worked out in which the toilet gets pulled first thing tomorrow, the wall paper goes up and the new toilet appears in the proper place by sunset. Yes, the new walls around the tub will still need attention but that's 'way on the other side of the room. We can get to that later, after the new tub shows up. Besides, it will be very inspiring to smell that wallpaper paste and see something close to "finished." The light fixture and perhaps even the mirrored medicine cabinet can return, too.
Hi Dad, hi Mom!
Greetings Our Ancestral Home blog fans. Would you believe this lady is 84 years old? Well, truth be told, this picture was taken when she was a mere 83, on Easter Sunday. Her birthday was last Monday. It's never too late to send her a belated birthday card.
