We have finally finished all our remodeling of our house and yard. It only took 7 years but now its ready and on the market. We are hoping it sells quickly so the rest of the family can join Mike in Yorktown, Va.
We have spent a lot of time & money on this house and are ready to relax and spend time with the kids on the beach this summer. We took quite a few picture when we were looking at the house to buy. I've lined them up with what our house looks like now. Take a look, its a completely different house. Can't believe we bought it in the first place.
