Writing Our Family Story One Room at a Time
As we sit back and reflect on six years in our family home, it’s hard to believe how much has changed since we first moved in. This house, once just a structure filled with drywall and paint samples, quickly became the backdrop to our family story. As we navigated the rollercoaster of infertility and uncertainty, this place offered us a renewed sense of hope as we transformed it into a home.
The Project that Became Our Sanctuary
In 2019, Finn and I were searching for a fresh start. Leaving behind our cozy two-bedroom condo for a spacious house turned out to be the grounding move we desperately needed. Our whirlwind three-month renovation allowed us to channel our energy into creating a cozy haven, and what’s more, it became the very place where we welcomed our precious daughter, Rory, into the world.
Growing Up in a Loving Space
The day-to-day life in our home is filled with laughter, love, and the little chaos that comes with raising a family. The walls of our home are now adorned not just with art but with the joy of childhood captured in sticky fingerprints and cherished family moments. Having a big family calendar in the kitchen and clutter in the living room speaks to the life we now live.
Finding Community Beyond Our Walls
Perhaps the most rewarding revelation has been how the concept of “home” extends beyond our front door. Our neighborhood has transformed into an extension of our family, filled with friends who have become like family. From neighborhood gatherings to quick chats across the yard, the connections we've made amplify the cherished memories we’re crafting every day.
Bringing Transformation and Love into Your Own Space
For those looking to revamp their spaces or simply take on a DIY project, remember that your home is more than just a physical space. It’s where memories are made and stories are told.

So roll up your sleeves, dive in and enjoy the journey of transforming your house into a home that reflects your unique story!
