Addie’s House 2
Posted: November 11, 2014 Filed under: Arkansas, Parenting | Tags: arkansas, farm house, House renovation 2 CommentsBack to Arkansas where the only time I think about my hair is to check for spiders before calling it a day. How about a little look inside? Truthfully we still haven’t had the opportunity to fully assess the inside of the house. A family member uses the house for storage and until we get everything moved out, we’re not really sure about how everything looks within.
Talk about the land of the lost, this house seems to be where things go to be forgotten, but try to look past the stuff and get a glimpse of the floor……I’m sensing some interesting things there.
Time to roll up our sleeves and get cleaning.

Child labor is highly helpful, you should see this kid suck up the dearly departed wasps with the shop vac! Who needs video games with fun like that?!
Many, many sweaty hours later we were able to clean out three rooms. This whole exercise was a huge motivation for living simply!

Nothing quite like building traps in the sand-like Arkansas soil while tethering yourself to the porch!
What else sounds like fun?
Sawing some stuff down?
Sure, never done that before!
Lastly, found this little inspiration for the house “skirt”. We will probably only be able to do this in the front and use lattice around the sides and back, but I think it’ll compliment the house perfectly.
Hope you’re enjoying our Arkansas adventures, until next time!
Wonderful reality pictures! I feel like I’m there. Thanks a bunch. 2 thumbs up for the front skirt.
Love, Mom
Love it all!
