I meant to post some more home improvement pics on Sunday, but I got side tracked. We had quite an eventful weekend! Here is a picture of my pantry… It is significant because when we moved in, there were only 4 shelves. About a year ago, Wade put in the topmost shelf, and on Sunday he installed the bottom shelf. I love my pantry. And I can’t stop telling my husband how much I love it.

Our *big* project was finishing up the backsplash. Wade starting the grout… (rolling his eyes at me again. LOL!)

So messy! Like playing with mud but with a much prettier outcome. haha

A wide shot after we got the outlet covers on and the stuff back on the counters. And check it out!! We actually got two doors back up on the cabinets!!

A little close-up of the backsplash. I love it so much! (and just a little reminder…the green walls are going. We’ve got a pretty blue picked out and will get started on painting soon!)

  5. Cool art! I had no idea Wade was that good at “Home Improvement”. I actually sanded down a maple bedroom suite of my moms last summer. She bought it in 1967. I went back with the natural clear stain, and polyurethane with like 7 coats. It took me about 3 weeks, everyday. It’s beautiful now!! So, I was wondering, would the boys like to catch some Colorado insects to send to me?
