With seven kids plus a baby on the way, Austin and Cody needed a home that would comfortably fit a family of 10. Since most houses simply aren’t built for that many people, we knew that whatever we found would have to undergo some major renovations to make it work. Luckily, we found a spacious, two-floor home with a large yard in a convenient neighborhood that everyone agreed felt like home. Over the next eight weeks—we had to get the renovations done before baby number eight arrived!—we knocked down walls, overhauled the kitchen and family room, and made sure every detail served a purpose in order to give Austin and Cody a new home that’s as functional as it is stylish.
