The Badger Bug & Mike and Karlie's Home

So... it all started with this guy...

"Boss Badger"

(AKA: Our Dad)

Remember his most recent accomplishment?

This was a result of...

"THE BADGER BUG"

As was this... Done recently by my Sister and her hubby Bud

(I have yet to see the finished product... but you get the idea)

And we all know that THIS never ending little project I coaxed Cason into

... was just... crazy... right?

"BADGER BUG"

Well... My big bro. and my cute sister in law Karlie, have also been diagnosed with

"The Badger Bug"

What IS the "Badger Bug" you ask?
Well... let's just say that it's a crazy, almost OCD nature that makes an over 50 year old man bike from Jackson Hole Wyoming to Logan Utah EVERY YEAR, for the past 4 Years...
in ONE DAY!!!


It's when someone says you CAN'T and you SHOW THEM
... you CAN and WILL!...
:)
... and  that you're not going to STOP till it is PERFECT!  Even if it sounds crazy!
... literally.
Like... no corners cut, everything in it's place...
Let's just add some crown molding here, some under cabinet lighting there, repaint our entire house, rip out our whole hall bathroom to the studs on a Saturday night,
pimp out and decorate the inside of your freakin' pantry... kinda, crazy!!!
LOL.

Mostly this "bug" peeks it's ugly little head out...
via, home projects, like these... but has been known to change career paths, and lives...

Always for the good... I'm happy to report
 :)

Well, I'm THRILLED to finally share my brother and sister in laws
"Badger Bug" Experience :)
It's been in the works for a while now... and I'm SO excited to have pictures to show you!
