Recent happenings

Just a little update of our recent fun. We are really enjoying our pretty, new floors but, that's not stopping my endless "To Do" list from growing. I made a cute little front door plaque. I painted a piece of wood with chalk board paint, stapled on a ribbon and added a cute flower that donned a wedding gift we received from my cousin's wife, Amanda.

Then Alex painted our hallway "Snowfall" white by Behr on Friday evening. He let me help for a little while before kicking me out, apparently I'm not as skilled as he'd thought. And for the grand finale, we bought our pantry and assembled it. It's not what I was expecting, but I do like it and I'll really enjoy not having to keep my soup cans next to our towels in the linen closet. We purchased the pantry on a whim from Lowes and being the awesome planners that we are, we drove the Focus. While highly gas efficient and safe, it's not really great for transporting large objects. After Alex and Dylan (the Lowes loading "specialist" -he looked 17, which in my opinion is too young to be a specialist in anything. It just goes to show that they'll give anyone a title these days...) shoved the box in the car we puttered home to assemble. Three hours later and a few choice adjectives the pantry is holding my soup cans beautifully. Now to do laundry and create more fun activities to add to the list.
