Exterior Paint

If there was an award for the worst blogger, surely I'd receive it.  It's now two months later and I'm finally posting an update.  Back in early May our painting contractor finished up the exterior, and we are so pleased with the outcome!

Progress from last year (cont. exterior)

Once the interior was gutted, the guy tore off the vinyl siding and the shingle siding revealing the original wood siding.  This was really exciting to see what the house looked like as close to originally as possible.  Stripped down to this layer, we could also see where all the additions were (like the room on the wrap around porch and the "garage" off the back and the room connecting it to the house).  Looks like it was done in phases over a couple decades. Such pretty lighting that day for pictures!
