It&#8217;s about a couple our age who bought a 54 year old house, and in the past 4 years have updated and renovated it to create a beautiful, stylish home for their family. I love reading their website, and at the time it inspired me to start this blog.<\/p>\n<p>I had lost the link until today, when <a href=\"http:\/\/joannal.blogspot.com\/\">Joanna<\/a> linked to it on Twitter. I was very excited! I spent part of the evening reading through it again, and getting inspired.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to get discouraged about our house because the projects seem so expensive. We don&#8217;t *have* $15,000 to fix our foundation. We probably will never have the money to do all the things I want, like tear out all the paneling and put in drywall. I&#8217;m trying to be content with what we have.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get inspired, take a poke around Young House Love, especially <a href=\"http:\/\/www.younghouselove.com\/photo-gallery-2\/\">their before\/after pictures<\/a>. Hopefully our house will look just as beautiful someday. :-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A long time ago, someone sent me a link to a website called Young House Love.
