Chair Makeover

Brett and I found this chair in the trash last year. Yesterday I cleaned it up, fixed the wheels, and then recovered it. Looks like new!

Valentines Date

For Valentines Day I built a beautiful blanket fort for Brett and I to have dinner in and watch a movie. We had a wonderful time eating chocolate dipped berries and just enjoying the coziness of the environment.
We loved it so much we just could not get rid of it. The fort is getting moved to our spare room.

Four New Friends

This is what I watched while making dinner the other night. Four new friends having fun in our back yard. None of which belong to us. Though we are getting a goat in the spring.

 

Remodel Progress

This is a little video I put together to show my progress on our new house. I have been working really hard but I think it is defiantly paying off.

Sledding

     I know this happened a few weeks ago but I still think it is a fun post. Brett and I invited my In-laws to go sledding with us. I had a blast making snow angles and tunnels, and of course sledding. It was the first time I can remember ever do that. I also thought I was going to be cold but I really wasn't. It was a fun day.

New Years Resolution

     I am so sorry that I pretty much took a year off from blogging. Last year, we were trying so hard in the spring to get a house. Tons of paperwork, appointments, inspections, making offers and we lost the bidding on several houses. My life was too hectic and stressful to blog. In June, however, we found a major fixer-upper and got it for next to nothing. We love this house so much! We have also chosen to live here while we remodel. Not the best idea, I admit. This now makes me a full time remodeler. I am just trying to stay one step ahead of the plumbing problems, dying furnace, leaky roof, etc.

     We have lived here for 6 months now. We are getting pretty close to having the house to a comfortable stage. I plan on showing our progress soon. We are nowhere near being done but a few rooms are getting close. So again, I am sorry for the really long break. Part of my New Years Resolution is to start blogging again along with 15 other things.

Also, I want the blog to get back to what it was intended for. I am not going to be doing DIY post anymore. They are very time consuming so I would just keep putting them off. I just want this blog to be my everyday life so my family can see what I am up to in Colorado. I know that I will lose a lot of followers, but this is just how it has to be.
