The winds of change are a-blowin

So since we finally decided to stay in our current abode we have decided to change it up a bit. We added an attic storage in our dropped garage, it is HUGE and wonderful so far we have emptied an entire storage unit up there ....and still have room! We purchased new furniture for the family room a leather couch and awesome round chair, & new coffee table. Macys Big Girl room is complete and she loves it. Done in a shabby chic motiff that is sooo girly and cute. New curtians and spread for the master bedroom, that really accent the style of the furniture where the old ones did not, and since Duke is not into me getting anything different this was a compromise and I likey! I painted the kids bathroom with funny fish all over and they love it as well as put up a cornise board over the tub and new shower curtians and new fish stuff. They love it and it is so Happy looking!We also put a granite top on our kitchen island, the color is Bordeaux and it so pretty it really looks wonderful and accents the kitchen great. I also have some new appliances coming, the install of my new dishwasher and LG washer dryer combo....it washes them and then dries them....same unit....(musical interlude) HEAVEN..da du da du...must be missing a washer/dryer.... da du da du....
WOW that will be awesome and my Kennmore Elite dishwasher that is gonna actually CLEAN my dishes....again interlude Missing one kenmore dishwasher...in my house next week! I also got a second fridge/ freezer some might think this is a Beer fridge and you would be SOOO wrong it is a milk fridge for my laundry room....so great like 6-7 gallons a week, and water and the essential caffines...and I must be honest and admit there is ONE beer in there right now. And I still have a list of to dos....rock the fire place, extend the deck, paint several rooms, a screen door that Duke is hesitant to install...his thought is the door should be closed the AC is on .....seariously we have 3 kids options are:

1. open door W/screen = no bugs
2. open door W/bugs
On with the list.....swap out my entry light, a murphy bed for the work room, and some cedar accents that Duke is dragging his feet on so I will have to do them solo and prove to him they will be awesome. So goal is by summers end the house will be OURS....and it only took 7 years.

My kids are great....and they have been to Grandma and Bepaws twice since the end of May... and I totally get why they love it soo much. It is Kid-u-topia....the trampoline, sand box, play pool, electric cars, swing, tadpole pond and nets to catch them, and toys on toys and THEY let you stand on the coffee table to build REALLY BIG block towers.....they also let you build forts and help cook.....I wanna go too! Macy went through like 8 changes of clothes in 2 days....every time she went out back she got in the pool or dumped pond water all over her....SOO FUN Grandma and Bepaw ROCK! ALSO momma sam brought back from India a ton of new movies and games for the kids and candy.....wow my kids are SO deprived!
