Happy Friday this and thatters! If you follow me on insta you know that Matt and I are renovating our home!  It's probably more accurate to call it an out and out gut job, ha.  We have removed the entire roof, tons of windows etc. etc. I thought it would be fun to document our journey here!  It has been a fun journey so far.  Everyone asks me if demo is hard and for me it isn't because I love seeing big progress each and everyday!  I know there will be days and even weeks that I can't really tell that anything is happening so I am relishing this time.   For my first post on our reno I thought it would be fun to post some before pics of our place and a some demo shots as well.  Enjoy!! xoxo Here are the before pics of our little casa!
