Today was all about doors. Office doors, closet doors, bathroom doors — you name it. It may seem odd that we are so excited about our new interior doors, but we love them!

The job of re-shingling the roof of the family room began bright and early at 7:45. The first task was removing the old, brittle shingles. We’re pleased to have Matt and his crew doing this job. They did the framing for the addition, and we know they do good work.

Nine hours later, the family room has new shingles.
The step down from the addition on the left to the family room on the right is where the leak occurred.
Inside, the installation of new doors began. It will take several days to install all nineteen of them.
New doors!
Is it our imaginations, or do the white doors make the rooms look larger compared to the old dark doors?
