6 Months Later

Exactly 6 months ago we moved from our lovely 2 bedroom, furnished (a la rustic ski cabin) temporary housing to our beautiful home. And although not all the decor was (and still is) "us" we felt at home right away.

This is a great house. The location is perfect, right on a nature conservancy that we can run / hike / bike / cross country ski through (and yes, we have done all those things). It looks over a green space which we can pretend is our property but we don't have to take care of it. And our new wonderful Madison friends live 2 doors down (Hi Anna and JD!). And that is only the location...I could go on for hours about everything else we love.

But one more thing I can't pass by...although this house was in perfect move-in condition it is full of projects. Nothing that needs to be done right away but all fun things to take our time with. And even though we are taking our time I feel like we have accomplished a lot in the last 6 months. So in tribute to all our hard and fun work I wanted to take a walk down memory lane. (Is it memory lane after only 6 months?!?!?)

The adventure began in my daughter's room, which looked like this...


And ended up like this!

The Grand Piano Room got some paint...



 And don't forget the surprise Master Bedroom Makeover!






My daughter got a new play area...

(This was a lovely pic on move-in day!)



I turned the kitchen table from ordinary to playful...




And had some fun with some projects along the way!






So the snow eventually did melt.  And we are proud to call this house our home.



Happy 6 Month Anniversary To Us!
