Corners of our home :: the heart - our kitchen

{inspired by Soulemama}

I am finally getting around to posting of pictures of our "newly-remodeled-but-not-ever-close-to-being-finished" home! Here's a reminder of the original state of the house. The kitchen is where I spend ALL of my time. Cooking, baking, school work, planning, cleaning...you know the drill. I love my new kitchen! I mean, I really love it.

Here is a before picture...


And after:

christmas has come to our house!

Gettin' Dirty!

Last Sunday John and the boys harvested some potatoes from our garden. They had a blast and were filthy by the time they were finished. It doesn't get much better than this....

Oh, if there was time to blog....

Here's what we've been up to the last month or so...1st haircut

Our house was finally moved! They are 3 1/2 weeks into the renovation and it's coming along nicely! I can't wait to move in!

There she is! As we drive by it Hunter always says "just look at that beautiful house!"

Maybe it won't be so long until my next post....

Dreamy Weather!

It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade. ~Charles Dickens

This described playing outside with the boys all day yesterday. We are going to do it again today...and tomorrow...and for as long as this beautiful Spring weather will allow...

Happy Thanksgiving Y'all!

Today we start making the rounds, visiting family, eating more turkey than we can imagine, scarfing down delicious homemade pies, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and rolls. And most importantly, spending time with family talking about football, our lives, what we are thankful for, and just enjoying each other. I love this time of year. I love everything about it. I have so much to be thankful for that I feel like my little heart might explode. What a crazy and wonderful thing this life is. I love it! I wish you and your family a wonderful and thankful thanksgiving!
