We are just a normal family that desires to live as debt free as possible and be a blessing to others. This blog is about part of our journey to get there. Come often and view our progress as we take the plunge with our "dream" home. Oh, you may see it as a nightmare but sit back and watch as our dream becomes a reality. A reality where we can enjoy the company of those traveling through as they stop and enjoy a good nights rest and some old fashioned home cooking. If by chance you live in the area or are traveling through, stop in and see for yourself what we are doing as you sit a bit and enjoy a glass of sweet tea. If nothing else, just come often and watch as this dream of ours unfolds right before your very eyes.

operation outside

It has been over a month this time since I have updated the blog. Don't think for a moment that there was nothing to update. That is so not true!  There are so many things that we have gotten done over the past five weeks or so.  Including lots of log splitting to prepare for winter.  I know it is hot but if we don't get a jump on it now, it will get a jump on us and who knows, it could be winter next month with the way our weather patterns have gone this year.  There have been outside water lines put in, siding started, the garden planted, outdoor shower built, flowers planted and grass planted.  Many more things also.  The ground has been leveled in preparation for the pool to go up.  So enjoy these photos as you walk through our journey of remodeling here at Operation Broadwell.



The kids and I made a trip to my mothers to get a few flowers for the side of the house.

Flowers planted and window well garden is finished.

Flowers planted in the window well make for a beautiful view from the sewing area in the basement.

We have several Mulberry trees in the yard.  Makes for a great snack when your mom won't give you one.  LOL


Also found black raspberries along the back of the wood shed.  Yummy!
Just one of these flower bushes found along the property.

 
We did find time to plant the garden too!

This is an essential part of the outdoor shower house.

The outdoor shower house.

Bathroom off the living room.

Master bedroom toilet room.

Pumping some good old fresh well water.  Ice cold too!

Amazing how much wood this makes when it is split.

It makes this much!

Siding started

More siding

Me lighting up the outside so the siding preparatin can be finished.

Always good when family comes to help out!
