Our latest home improvement project / pain in the rear!



So, if there is anyone out there that is wanting to install a television above their fireplace, ON STONE, and with NO ATTIC above the fireplace or den....call me first! Man! We finally decided to just bite the bullet and put a TV above the fireplace. Sounds easy, huh? Umm...not so much. Apparently when you have a stone fireplace and tall ceilings (leaving you with no attic above your den), you run into all sorts of problems. So after bringing an electrician out twice, a team from Best Buy, and two 30 foot HDMI cables later, we finally have our den set up the way we want it. The price just for installation? I don't want to talk about it.


Needless to say, we are going to watch lots of movies at home now and you all are invited!

As absolutely hideous as the installation is (trust me, we know all about it...), it is TOTALLY worth it! Your living room looks great! You'll love it... we love our tv set-up. :) It makes our life easier too since we never get out much... at least we can watch good movies at home!
