Making sure everything works... Tomm is such a handy man. We are soo lucky that he understands all the utilities of a house. He has been working on the things that can be fixed and replacing the things that are on their last leg.
The old pool filter of awfulness! It smelled sooo bad! I thought there was a dead body somewhere. YUCK! Now we have a shiny new one.
Landscaping... This one's a biggie! As you can see there is much to do. We plan to clear everything away from the house so we can clean it up and paint it. We also are going to have about 6 pine trees removed away from the house.
A future gardening site
There is grass under there, believe it or not.
Get the pool cleaned up and running... Wow! Yikes! Icheewawa!
My manly man getting it done!
Wash and paint the exterior house and patio...
Paint the inside...
I am exited to see the end of this color scheme: peanut butter and honey nightmare. We are going to go with neutrals. I can't wait to see it finished!
As soon as the painting is done I will bring my crew (myself and vacuum) in for the cleaning. It is needing my attention to detail!
In the kitchen we are going to put in granite counter tops and stainless appliances. I can't wait! 
Maybe we'll go back to pink and purple some day... then again we could have only boys.
SOME OF THE OPPOSITIONS:
Our water is now well water so it has created some rusty-ness around this toilet and inside the toilets. I ran the water the other day and it was greenish. So we also need to have some water specialists come out and help us with the purification... so we don't grow third eyeballs or anything.
BUGS! We're in the country now so I have explained to all the creepies if they come inside there are consequences.
Dirt, grime and pine needles, these will cover the roof and totally ruin it because they hold so much moisture. By removing some trees we can prevent them getting on there in such large deposits.
Latest update:
We have pretty much gotten ALL of these things done! I am soooooooooo exited about the way things are looking! I will post some before and after pics when we get everything done. YAY!
This little lemon tree was under a bunch of rubbish. I was so exited about it. It smells SO good! Hopefully we can get it growing now.

Wow! Lots to be done but it's gonna be AMAZING! The house and the property is GORGEOUS! The pool looks so nasty but it's gonna be so nice when it's up and running. I can't wait to see all the progress. Please keep updating!
Ugh all those chores look exhaustng. But I'm sure it's a little exciting and fun too. I can't wait for after pics. Wish I could be there to help. And I love the little lemon tree. Sooo cute. Love and miss you ;)
You have got a lot to do, but it will be so nice when everything is done! I have a lemon tree and love it! Of course in Utah they can't be outside so we bring ours in when it gets cold. Last year I got 5 lemons and they were amazing! Good luck with all of the projects, I am excited to see the outcome!
