The last 8 weeks has been musical bedrooms and a game of dominoes in the upstairs of our house. The move to get Teddy out of the crib spurred: Turning the guest room into Andrew’s new room Turning Andrew’s old room into Teddy’s new room Turning the nursery into the guest room Changing ceiling fans in the master bedroom and…
From the very first time I stepped foot in our house I despised our pink bathroom. And after 4 years of living here, it did NOT grow on me….at all. Pink paint, brass, frilly lights; albeit very nice, it just wasn’t me or a house full of boys. So I FINALLY said peace out to the pink and welcomed in…
We’re learning it takes a lot of wood to fill our fire pit. If we’re not careful our wooded 1.5 acres will quickly become an open field! 😉 Before After
We christened the fire pit- toddler style! Andrew’s best buds (and their families) came over for dinner, drinks and yummy sticky goodness!
Anyone who knows Andy knows he’s a slight pyromaniac; likely resulting from years of fire building as an Eagle Scout. As such we’ve always wanted a proper fire pit in the back yard.

One our latest DIY projects: I’ve wanted to do something with the barrels from our wedding. For almost 2 years, they sat in the garage just collecting dust until we finally got around to turning one into a coffee table for a our newly renovated living room. From: Notice the barrels in the background by the entrance to the tent; not the skinny,…
I’ve wanted to redo our dining and living room since we bought our house. It just wasn’t us and I wanted to make it feel more like our home and not the sellers. So here are the first pics of the new room. It’s taken a while since we’ve done everything ourselves but I’m really happy with how it’s turning…
