Cinderella.
That’s who I was tonight.
The “royal ball” was a simple party for a few friends and neighbors.
My “fairy godmothers” were all those who made this sketchy dream a detailed reality.
PRESTO! Out with dated wallpaper and dirty carpet- in with soothing, new walls and tile!
Zap! Out with worn appliances- in with shiny replacements!
Bippity Boppity! Out with blonde cabinets- in with cherry wood and “no slam” doors!
Rod and I feast our eyes on every detail, and celebrate this victory of teamwork. Not only did we learn to work together, but so did all those who contributed along the way, including (but not limited to):
• Jeff Pense and team from 180 Degree Kitchen and Bath Design Group LLC (including Bob, Brian, Daniel, Eddie, Jose, etc.)
• Margo Hanne from Finishes of Distinction (did amazing faux treatment in entry hall and special finish on hood in kitchen)
• Jamie Lyn Byerlee (home decorator)
THANKS EVERYONE!
Lord, we know this isn’t about bricks and mortar. What you care about are people, and that’s what we want to prioritize, too. We offer ourselves as comforters and friends to those we love now and those we will know in the future. Let our home be a sanctuary where people can come listen to our pond’s waterfall, take in the beauty of “Grace Garden” or relax in our new spacious living area. Continue to show us how to minister as a couple. Thank you, Father. Amen.
