    A Springtime Tour of the Homestead

    May 28, 2018 /

    Everything changes in just a matter of a week or two during the season of spring. One day the grass might be patchy and thin, and a few days later it looks like it hasn't been cut in weeks. The trees only flower briefly before fruit begins to grow, and everything that was brown quickly turns to green.

    House Tour: Movie Night Room

    May 16, 2017 /

    Have I mentioned before that our house is big?  Sometimes I miss how easy it was to clean a smaller house…  No, I don’t say this to brag, but I tell you this because I feel silly when I say “this is the movie night room” when taking people through the house.  It’s not a movie theater or anything like that, it’s just where we have our TV and watch movies on family movie night.

    House Tour: The Classroom

    March 10, 2017 /

    It’s done!  It’s done!  It’s finally done! *insert maniacal laughter*  After about 1 1/2 months of on and off work, I finally finished the work on the classroom!  I cannot even begin to describe to you how happy that makes me.  Until a few weeks ago, the kids barely used the classroom, and now I have it set up so the kids don’t have to wait on me for their work or have to get supplies out of my sewing room.

    A Big Table And Another Room Makeover In The Making

    January 20, 2017 /

    What do you do when your husband comes home with a huge slab of bowling alley lane?  Build a table, of course!  The table was Scott’s idea, and the efforts to build it have been combined.  It has taken about 15 months for us to finally get it assembled (not that it was hard to assemble, but it was hard to find the time to work on it), and it will probably take another month or two until we get it completely finished, but today I’m just happy to share this progress with you!
