We're getting closer and Hoppy Easter!


This is fairly long overdue, but here are a few pictures of the progress on the house taken during this past weekend. (In case you need reminding of what this place looked like before we bought it..., and here, and here) We had S's family to our house this year. It was a lot of fun, and thank you again for all the wedding presents... I think we used them ALL. And, ... we got to break out the Piland Silver, only used for the most special occasions–and that it was!


The place is definitely not finished, which is why I haven't posted pictures. We're busy picking out fabric for the living room furniture (a sofas and two large, armless chairs), trying to find something awe inspiring to go above the sofa on the wall, looking for the perfect dining room rug, and searching for the right table to go in the corner to elevate the perfect lamp... Of course, we've found all said pieces; however, they are pricey, pricey. So, for now we visit our champagne items, laugh about our beer budget, and deal with the bare walls.

Oh, I love this. Saturday night before retiring, I was working in the garage when I heard S yell for me. He was in the front yard mowing the lawn. Which is funny because we don't have a lawn mower. He had found a REALLY old push lawn mower left by the previous owner and was going to town on our sad excuse for front yard. This is home ownership people... Saturday night at 10:30...



Gettin' after it.

S says it looks like the goats ate the grass. I love him.
