| The Chronicles Zelda Hey everyone, I thought about posting this for a while since it isn't technically about Yorkies but I figured people might be interested in this. My husband and I have been renovating an old house built in 1920. My daughter's named the house Zelda after Zelda Fitzgerald queen of the 20's because of this. We go there on weekends and work all day, it's a beautiful house and is looking better. Before it was practically crumbling, now we've updated the master suite, refurbished the kitchen and leveled the floors. We take Cookie there and she loves it, she enjoys running from room to room, giving us kisses while we work and playing in the dust. Everytime we get back she needs a bath because she's all dirty but she has a great time. We have a running blog and Cookie appears in the pictures often, take a look if you're interested. The Chronicles of Zelda

| How exciting to have a project like that! The house is looking beautiful! Did you do the rennovation on the outside or was it in that good of condition already? Do you plan to live there? I would -- it looks like it will really be quite a show place when you're done. I saw the one picture where it looks like you guys overworked poor Cookie! LOL! She was taking a nap.

Yes Cookie was tired that day, surprising really since usually she's a little ball of energy at Zelda. She loves running up and down the stairs, prancing around the kitchen and begging for attention. She's a good little mascot throughout the building process

| Totally cool. Just love the staircase. My time earning my first degree from FSU in Tallahassee, was spent with a friend who had an old farmhouse from the 1800's. Some of my fondest memories are of spending time around his fireplace drinking hot cocoa! I just fell in love with the whole idea of re-conditioning one. I am sooooo envious of you! It looks absolutely gorgeous. |
