Homemakers

April 1, 2012

Matt and I have done our share of crafty things. We painted the dining room in our old house (right over the wallpaper!), we turned light fixtures from bronze to black, we’ve hung shelves, spray-painted, built tables, planted gardens, and taken a stab at electrical work.

NO CAVITIES! Cue this flashback photo from my last visit in August. Whee! Amy the Hygienist and I talked about babies the whole appointment.

The first spring in a new house is always fun – you never know what is going to pop up where! I worked while Matt had tons of appointments this morning. I can tell the bakery to-do list is growing exponentially! [I just realized when I spelled it wrong that I say that word “Expo-den-tially” [...]

Had lots and lots of fun today! My brain feels much better. First off, Matt and I set out on an adventure this afternoon. Karen had given me a ticket to visit the Symphony Guild 2010 Designer House (a professionally designed model-home trio fundraiser for the Charlotte Symphony). I almost didn’t go, but decided I [...]
