What we've been up to

We have been busy!
Over the weekend we had a drain problem with the sink - so Josh and Shelby figured it out.

Our kitchen curtains arrived! As well as our bedroom curtains. We had a good time putting them up yesterday.

Josh (and Shelby) finished her bed frame today! Once her bedding arrives we'll show you the final product. Josh did a great job!

We got this chest of drawers today from some friends. Now...what color to paint it? And what new handles do we put on it? :) We plan to use it in Shelby's room. This project will hopefully be done by the first of November, so that I can take Shelby's chest of drawers and use it for the baby's room.

Josh has a shop in between the garage and the laundry room. He is building shelves to get it all organized. He is really enjoying having the room to do some woodwork and all the little projects we have going.

Did I mention that we have been busy!? :) We are enjoying our new home! Hopefully by the end of this week we'll have our curtains for the living room. Then next week we'll get Shelby's curtains up and her bedding in.

It is the first day of Fall! What a wonderful time of year!!! Hope you all have nice, crisp weather to enjoy. We are at 91 degrees, but I hear thunder...so maybe we'll get some rain and it will cool off. Maybe, just maybe. :)

  1. Glad to hear you are enjoying your new home and the decorating and projects that come with! How fun! I would say a white color for the dresser with some hot pink handles! :) Woo hoo! Depends on Shelby's room colors though...keep us posted!

  2. The pics with Shelby helping you Josh, brought back wonderful memories of all the projects I worked on with my dad...mostly lamps and boats! So cool that she'll have great memories of helping her dad too. So sweet! Everything is looking so nice and homey. Love the red curtains, of course! You guys are doing a great job. Can't wait to see it in person some day. Love you 4!!

  3. Forgot to say that I'm very envious of your gas stove, Sharon. I sure miss mine. Hope you're enjoying yours!
