Baby It's Cold Outside?

Strange thing...it reached down to the mid 30s early this week. First week of March in South Texas and it gets cold?

I LOVE IT!!!

Our A/C is kaput right now so a cold front is lovingly welcomed in our home.


SPRING! Outside the leaves are coming back and wild blossoms are popping up and it is time to prime the yard, clean up lawn furniture and ready the bbq pit.
What plans do you have for your outdoor places?

Excited to do it!


When my husband and I got married in 2009, we moved into a one bedroom apartment with no washer/dryer hook ups in the individual apartments. As you might have read before, we didn't wait to start having kids. During about the second trimester of that pregnancy, we moved into a two bedroom apartment in the same complex so again no hook ups. During all that time we did laundry at my parents who lived only 10 minutes away. In June 2011, we moved into my in laws rental home. My in laws were redoing the house they were in. The family that lived in the rental before us told my in laws that they had their own washer and dryer so they didn't need the ones left in the house. Worked out for my in laws since the house they were working on didn't have them. So when that family left, so did the washer and dryer.

This last Saturday, Tom installed a washer and dryer in the house. A long story of how we came to have them, but for the first time in four and a half years...we can do laundry whenever we want. Sounds strange but I am so happy I can do laundry all the time now!

So, now I have a new project to plan and do: laundry room make over! Since we are in a rental, and my mother in law is taking back the house after we move out, Everything I do needs to be removable. Mostly. I can't really pick my colors either. A challenge. Which is what I like in a home project.

The Girls' Room is also needed to be done, as well as the bedside sleeping area for Raven, so there are project reports to come!
