Since I’ve been posting a lot of pictures around the house but no real pictures of the house, I thought it would be fun to share a before and after of the room we’ve made the most progress on- the kitchen. Since we spend so much time in here on a daily basis, it was [...]

While we haven’t really embarked on any landscaping projects yet, we have tried to cut back some of the brush around the house and have accumulated a few big piles of sticks. While Zoey loved them, I wasn’t thrilled with what they did for the curb appeal of the house and was ready to take [...]
A Little Fall Treat

Now that Halloween is over and we’re getting ready for (hooray!) Christmas decorating, we decided it was time to get rid of the pumpkins that we had used to decorate our porch.

Yesterday, we had a great time going to our friends Charles and Amy’s house to hang out and enjoy some fun Halloween festivities. We started by carving pumpkins, which I hadn’t done in a while. Zach directed and I tried to interpret his artistic vision. We pretty much ended up with a standard jack-o-lantern, but we [...]
