Dreams of a farm sink

I haven't talked about it much on here.  But we have a house that will *hopefully* be ours in a very short amount of time.  It's been a ….process.  And that's saying it nicely, guys.

However, this house sits 30 minutes or so from Colorado Springs and comes with 35 acres.  This includes a horse ring, mineral/gas rights, and some tumbleweeds.  It was built about 10 years ago, so it doesn't need a complete overhaul, but we have plans for it.

Also, I've never seen it in person, but that is neither here nor there, I guess.

We plan to start with the kitchen.  We're replacing appliances, installing countertops, and re-doing the existing cupboards.  After that will come the floor:  hardwood in the living areas and I'm pushing for it in the kitchen too.  We're tossing around the idea of a slate kitchen floor.  The bedrooms already have new carpet.  Maybe some painting, but Scott said the paint that's there is new-ish.

Scott says.  After all, I've never been there.

He drew me a picture.

I plan on 100% documenting this process for you all.  There's a lot of DIY in our future and I'm so excited to get started after almost 5 years of renting.

Since we started talking about the kitchen first, and we're brilliant enough to know that kitchens are where you add your value, we started talking about sinks.  Scott wants a copper sink.  I want a farm sink.

This is my dream.

And Scott hates it. 

That was tough for me to accept.  Given that it's my dream and all.

He likes this, though.

I could definitely settle for that.  Compromise, right?
