I have been blissfully absent from blogging for most of the summer as I decided to unplug and recharge myself. We moved into a new house last September and I have been itching to attack some projects. Here is photographic proof of what I was doing (since we know I wasn't blogging)
|
The Original Landscaping (rocks and dead grass) |
|
New Landscaping (flowers, mulch and lighting) |
|
The girls' room when we bought the house |
|
And the girls room today (remember the chandelier from last summer) |
|
Our room when we bought the house (yeah there was wall paper in weird places) |
|
Our room today |
|
Then entry way when we bought the house (yes those are real rocks glued to the wall) |
|
the entryway today (still have to finish the floor but it might be an improvement) |
|
the downstairs "office" when we bought the house |
|
my "office" today |
Those are the house projects. Of course we still have more to do but I think we are off to a pretty good start. I also enjoyed watching baseball games, gymnastics practice, dance camp and swimming pool tricks. We didn't take any big vacations (no money or time) but made a few day trips to friends in Iowa and my grandparents farms. We enjoyed some camping close to home and spent a lot of time laughing and hanging out with friends.
And now I am ready for a nap...
but wait, school just started!
