Oct 19 Our Lake House

Oct 18-20, 2013

For years, Ryan and I have dreamed about having a place on the lake. Well here it is. It is only 5 houses down from his grandparents in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. It is right on Lake Michigan. It all started out as an offer on an empty lot and somehow it turned into 180 ft of lakefront and this lovely home.

It doesn't have the most curb appeal, but it does have some fun and quirky 70's charm.

Like this old school elevator, and it still works. This home was built by two sisters, one of which had polio. This elevator assisted getting her to each level.

And this is our new backyard. I guess we didn't really leave the beach :)

Here is the beginning of MANY projects. I got several furniture items from Ikea for our new place. My dad, brother, sister-in-law and I worked on applying polyurethane to all the pieces in my dad's warm barn.
