exterior

Along with gutting and updating and fixing up the inside of our home, the outside has needed just as much love and attention. Our plans for the exterior are not urgent (by any means) but we do have some long-term goals for showing it a little love including: re-sodding the grass, cutting down the (unfortunately) diseased cherry tree, growing a vegetable garden, and the addition of plants, etc.

We started right away with a new roof. This was one of the two jobs (the other being the floor) that T$ agreed to hire out. We received bids from a couple different roofers and they were all surprised that the roof kept out water as it was in such bad shape. So thankful to have a new roof as we enter this fall season and to keep my family dry and safe in this northwest weather.

Here are the before and after photos. A new roof has already made SUCH a difference!
