Kjirsti & Tom

So I mentioned I wasn’t sure what the plan was with the house next door. Well they have been gutting it all week. There is a group of about 6-10 guys working there all the time. I have really enjoyed “spying” on them this past week- checking in on their progress and guessing about their…

So the house has been on the back burner for a while- which is evident from the lack of posts on this side of the blog. However, this week I did do a few things. I hung a couple frames and some other decorations. I also primed the half bath. We had a bunch of…

As Brecklyn said in the post below, “little things can change your day.” This week Tom and I have delighted daily over the progress of our seed garden.

I returned home at 9:45 this evening after a long day and a long week to find two letters in my mailbox. One was an adorable drawing from Ryanna featuring the two of us surrounded by trees. The other was a card made by Capriel with 4 o’clock seeds gathered by Talia and Sabina. It…

As Kjirsti already blogged, the big highlight of the week was probably skiing. I was talking to friends at work, and we all decided it would be great to go skiing together. It was wonderful to cut through the icy snow, and get a nice workout. I had a great faceplant early on, which would…
