I cant even begin to tell you how much I love having a playroom. Seeing toys all over the house just drives me crazy. I guess I just need order to stay sane. Yes in the past I was unable to do anything about it, but now every toy has its own place and if need be, I can just… Keep Reading
Momma’s got a sewing room.
I think this just may be my most favorite room in the house now, but that has not always been the case. This is the room that caused my worst “why did we buy this house” melt-down. When we purchased the house this room was not being used for anything, it was a big, dark, empty room. There was no… Keep Reading
I kinda like it.
So I just kept going with my first paint choices and I’m glad I did…I kinda like it. No, I don’t love it, but I really like it. And in all honesty I think it will grow on me. This is a change. A big, bright change. So time will only tell. But one thing I do know for sure… Keep Reading

Home renovation updates
So apparently some of you are curious as to what things are looking like around here. So the living room is pretty much done except for installing the sliding barn doors onto the kids playroom and the doorway to the cold cellar. As you can see the hardwood floors are covered in cardboard for protection from little boys with hammers… Keep Reading
Home Renovations.
How true is that? Those of you that have lived through a major home renovation like us know how true that is. But thankfully we are finally seeing it come together. The rooms are painted. And the hardwood floors are in. And so is the tile. Yes, it has been far from easy (especially this past week), but WE WILL… Keep Reading
We *heart* dry wall.
Three 16 hour days, 80 sheets of dry wall, lots of coffee and take-out and we are done. We have walls! It was a lot of work and took a lot of patience, but it was also a lot of fun. It was great to be working on the house with the hubby again, but definitely harder with 3 little… Keep Reading
Seriously… an orange bath tub?
Next week we will be hanging drywall on this side of the house (insert lots of screeches!!) Seriously, this has been a looong time coming! And while I’m trying not to get too excited, I am. Fingers crossed that we will be celebrating Christmas this year with a Christmas tree and not another Christmas branch and that we will be… Keep Reading
Inspirations for my home.
I have finally decided on a color scheme for the living room and dining area. For the walls, I have chosen Rosemary Green from Benjamin Moore and red as the accent color. I have loved these two colors together for the longest time, but have found very little use of them together. I was nervous about pairing them together, but… Keep Reading
House updates.
Three weeks ago my hubby took the week off to work on the house. Before he could start framing out the walls, he still had more demo work to do. So after an hours worth of work, this was what I saw…Iya-yaI! Luckily my hubby is a hard and fast worker because within a few hours the room was clean… Keep Reading
