Reno blog#1

Dh and I are on a kick of renovating/redecorating the house. It has been a LONG time coming, and finally we have the cash flow allowing us to do this all little by little. Feels great, and finally feels like "ours" even though we bought it 2 1/2 years ago! No longer anothers awful style, but little by little the rooms are becoming our own.
Here is our "new" upstairs main bathroom. Trust me, its a long shot difference then what it used to be like LOL






Notice the burnt out lightbulb, how did I not notice that until I took the picture???



Lastly for today, the master. We painted the walls (no more tacky pink!!!) and bought a new bedset. We are searching out a new dresser and curtains, then I can update with a picture of the WHOLE room!! The last thing on the list for this room, replace ugly pink carpet. We have saved half (who knew carpets would be SO expensive!!) so they will be done next spring.





Last on the list for the 2008 year is.....THE KITCHEN! Yuppie. Ive actually started, but wont post about the work in progress. That will be all until after christmas. The rest of the house will have to wait until after jolly old saint nick makes his way here. Enjoy!

My Kindergardener :)

That's right, my baby is now in school. She goes everyday for 1/2 a day and is loving each and every second that she is there!!! Despite a bit of kindergarden drama (thats a whole other post!), she is adjusting perfectly. I spoke with her teacher today who said Alexis is a gem and was adjusting very well and catching on quicker then anyone could expect. She is currently doing Senior Kindergarden work, while only in Junior K. I asked what would happen next year when she IS in SK, and she said we will fight that battle when we get there if she is still ahead of the rest. So enough blabber, time for pics!

My little lady all dolled up for school


Where on earth did my baby go?
