House Plans

Things are finally starting to come together around our house. After a few weeks of craziness, we're getting things put in their places, finding homes for new things, and crossing lots of things off "the list".

I made this ambitious list about a month ago and showed it to Will in hopes of accomplishing at least a few things before August. At the rate we're going, every single thing will be done before June! Below is the list with an "X" next to those things that are complete. Mom and Dad helped us get some big things started and finished up this past weekend: raised beds and new bushes out front. Thank you!! On tap for this week: paint in the living room, nursery, and hall, finishing up the outside front and back tasks (if I can find the climatis I want), and start hanging some of the many (many!) pictures that have been brought from Farmville (not to mention the ones we already had that we have yet to hang). Also, a consultation for new windows.

Here's to home projects coming together! Pictures to come....just as soon as our computer is hooked up again since I can't upload pics to Will's work computer. Happy Monday!
