We've been working hard to not have a bunch of boxes around. Right now, most of them are in my closet so I don't have to look at them! When we get the chance to be here, we work on a project here and there. We'll have more time after summer is over to work on things. We still have so much to look forward to with Mom and Dad coming home and our family reunion. I'm sure we won't get much done during that time, but we do have to get the house to a point where 1) Chuck and his family can stay with us when they come for Mom and Dad's homecoming and 2) we won't be too embarrassed for Mom and Dad to see our new place!
06-03-2009 Yay! The TV works!
06-05-2009 The new blinds started arriving today. They're just cheap bamboo ones from Overstock, but they'll do until the budget allows for planation shutters some day...some day FAR away! Those things are expensive! We installed the ones in the dining room (aka piano room) and the hallway today
06-18-2009 We finally got the garage cleaned out enough to fit both of our cars in! YIPEE! We still have a long way to go out there, but it's a start...
06-25-2009 We had dirt delivered and spread so we could actually grow grass. We are pretty much on rock out here, so I think Matt said we ended up buying 12 loads of dirt (that's dump truck loads, people!). The end result looks nice. I can actually picture grass here someday!
06-29-2009 Matt decided he wants to put a little flagstone walkway from the street to the sidwalk so when people park on the street they have a place to cut across the yard. He picked his stones out...now he has to place them. Hope his back is up to it!
