Snow, Snow go away




It's been a long winter and we are very sick of the snow. We had a blizzard on Tuesday (Feb 9th) and I bailed from work at 1pm and went home. Wednesday I called a snowday and just stayed home and enjoyed myself watching the snow blow around. The roads weren't good, so it was good to be next to the fire stitching and watching the DVR. The scenes are off our back deck looking out to the pond.

Box City....a couple months later

We continue to live among the boxes in my workroom and in the office, but the rest of the house is coming along. The livingroom/diningroom is about there, once I get the bookcases arranged and the Longaberger baskets photographed and indexed and put somewhere...yes I have a few dozen. This is still my favorite room in the house.











I finally decided the arrangement of the samplers I wanted on the walls and one day just started hanging them. These were spread over several rooms in our other house, but I like the look of them grouped in one place.


The main bath is all about lighthouses.





The guestroom is ready for anyone who wants to come stay. (Babies welcome)



The baby dresses are antique, the cradle is my daughter Emily's from when she was born and come summer it will be needed at her house along with the bassinet. Looks like I need to get that white mini crib put together.
