It's been awhile!  I'm haven't completely forgotten about my little blog here, but life has definitely stepped up and taken over for a bit.  The biggest question I am asked is about what our new place looks like.  It amuses me for a couple of reasons, the main one being that it's nothing compared to the house we built.  There will be almost little to none projects done here, it's a space we are just working on with what we have, and it's temporary...so time/energy/resources will not be spent on this space.  BUT, I totally understand the curiosity element, and it has been fun to see our stuff in a new setting and to try to make it as cozy/homey as possible.

I have managed to scrounge up some little projects for our stuff--things that we'll take with us when we leave.  We purchased some paint to do the kitchen bench set with (we decided to leave the table as is...the painted benches will make it look much better).  I'll use the same paint to do the boys' dresser with...and if we get on top of it (and the weather isn't toooo terrible), when we move the boys' room around to winterize a bit, I may even stain their bunk beds.  Just because.  :) Oh!  And I finally ordered some really cute fabric for Sawyer's big boy quilt.  :)  So maybe I'll come up with blogging material this fall if I actually get on it with these projects.

i would love to make some fun yellow-ish throw pillows for this room to go with all the grey!
