FINISHED!! I had so much fun that I am actually a little bit sad (a very little bit sad) that it's over. I definitely don't miss the mess, we had dust on every inch of our house, I had to dust and wash everything in my house, such a pain! So welcome to the "Deucher" cottage, sorry Garrett it's so feminine, next remodel I'll make it very masculine......I promise, wink wink!



I made this coat rack and placed shoe baskets under it, seriously this is the best, no more scrambling for shoes and backpacks before school!











Bathroom-new paint, new tile, and re-incarnated home decor accessories!

I wanted a cottage bedding set, and the only one I found online that I liked was out of my budget x's 3 so I made my own!

Bathroom-new tile, it was amazing how much black mold was under our linoleum...sick!

"SOME DAYS YOU ARE THE BUG, AND SOME DAYS YOU ARE THE WINDSHIELD," Today I was the windshield, and I am oh-so grateful for that!!!!




JUST FOR FUN I'M DOING ANNE'S TOP TEN FOR A WEEK!

1-Drew's fever went down from 104 to 101
2-My attempt at highlighting and coloring my hair wasn't a total disaster, it actually turned out okay!
3-Watched a fishing show with my husband, brother-in-law, and brother-in-law's friend, and it didn't involve any bum belching....phew, I hate that!
4-The refreshments at my meeting tonight were so delicious, I ate three servings and called it dinner!
5-Eating outside on Center Street at Gurros with Tessa and Drew.....the best.
6-I didn't make my bed for the first time in weeks, so liberating!
7-Running, wasn't totally miserable, just moderately miserable!
8-Tessa's crooked pigtails and snotty nose, need I say more?
9-Libby reading to me for the first time the book "I'll Love you Forever," instead of me reading it to her.
10-Tessa telling me that she's ready to be a "gril" again, and not a "buoy", phew that was a close one.

Happy Birthday Tessa Boo! We love you so much, even when you paint our walls and carpets with hot pink lip gloss!
