Spring Fever

Exhausted. Sore. Productive. These are words to describe what Randy and I consider our most successful home improvement weekend ever. Plants were removed, walls were painted, a light fixture was installed and yes, even a tree was cut down. This feeling of accomplishment has led us to ponder the remaining projects at the White House.

If you have ever been to our home you would observe incomplete projects at almost every turn. I'm okay with this. I like living in a state of development and creation. However, in order to prevent our over zealousness from overtaking our house we have decided to... complete all projects started by our two year house anniversary... Phew! I said it. Unfortunately, for Randy, most of these projects will require his workmanship and energy. But dear reader, don't discount the encouraging words and lovely company I will be giving him while he works.

So with confidence I can say spring has sprung at the White House.  And now I have a question for you ...what does your Spring Fever look like?

before: lights in the half bath

after: new light fixture in the half bath, but oops...broke the bulb on the way up...new project: find replacement bulb

Goodbye ugly tree.  Now what to do with the stump?

before: too many plants in the backyard

after: a cleaned out backyard...more room for Auggie to sunbathe

before: frame and pillar purchased at Canton in October '09

after: a pretty white frame

after: a white pillar with one more thing to add...a marble top

Gak.

Can't forget the cutest girl in the world!
