It’s starting to feel like home…

The past couple of months have been so stressful. It started as a long-awaited master bathroom remodel that had to be put on hold due to an unexpected emergency with a family member. This emergency meant that we needed to focus on other areas of the house… things that we had planned to do in the future- after the bathroom.

Another project took over so that we could create another room in the house and it is finally finished. There are some touchups to complete and I know there will be some furniture changes in the future but it is finished for now… at least until after the upcoming baby shower.

I’ve been wanting to put a wall up between the breakfast area and the den for long time. I created a wall and separated the area in so many ways over the past few years that I felt confident that a wall would be beneficial. You can see some of the many ways that this space has changed HERE.

Transform Your Garden with Trellis Beds

I love that I can come up with an idea in my head, put it down on paper, and Mr. Awesome can make it come to life! He has done this time and time again… just AMAZING! My Ube plants were going crazy and starting to take over the greenhouse so I needed to make a place for them to grow. I didn’t have a lot of money to put towards this as our bathroom really needs attention so we spent less than $100 on materials and I scavenged the scrap piles for materials.

While this isn’t exactly as I had planned, as we couldn’t find the lumber I had planned for, it is pretty close and just as AWESOME. I wanted a couple of beds for planting as this area is close to the septic and I didn’t want to take any chances with contaminated food but I also wanted to screen the backyard a little bit as we have a couple of sheds in this area. The solution was two trellis beds with a cattle panel arch to act as an ‘entry’ to the backyard area. It may also prove to be a pretty backdrop for pictures!

It couldn’t wait…

Hello friends!

We are getting closer to the wedding date and it seems like we’ve had one thing after another.

First, it was the freezer after the hurricane… but then it started working a little better until it didn’t. It started making a noise last week and then it began thawing very quickly. We had water everywhere!
