What We've Been Up To

 I've been a bit absent from the blog-o-sphere the last few months and our house is the main culprit. We are really enjoying it, but there have been a few cosmetic things that I decided needed to be done, and it is taking more time than I thought it would (duh, I should have known). I've painted walls and trim in 2 bedrooms, 2 hallways/stairways, and living room. Also, our pretty boring summer has filled up fast with wonderful things that take time, but we wouldn't have it any other way. (Disclaimer, the lighting is not very good in the photos, so if you want to see what it really looks like you'll just have to come visit!!!)

There's still things to do, but you get the idea.

FYI: painting/hanging pictures on stairs is for the birds.
