hooray for progress!

Remember what the kitchen looked like from these posts here and here?

Well, Scott is on vacation this week so we are back at it and I couldn't be more thrilled! Our absolute favorite part of home renovation is the details because that is what really makes a house your home. We have been conspiring for quite awhile on what our vision for this room is so it felt really good to execute one significant part of our master plan today.

We plan on color matching the cabinetry paint so that it looks like one piece. Scott totally flew by the seat of his pants with this one and I think it came out fantastic!

We have an idea for the unfinished space in between the 2 crowns but you'll just have to wait and see!

we wish you a merry christmas!

There was a ruckus in the living room the other day.

It was over a picture that we have had displayed in our living room for years. It went something like this...

Anna: Look, there's me in Momma's belly!

Julia: Yup and there's me. I remember it like it was yesterday! I was 6.5 years old

Jane: And there I am!

Anna & Julia: Ahhhhh, no. You weren't born yet. Sorry Jane.

Jane: Yes, I'm there...Daddy told me so.

*pause for effect*

Julia: Prove it.

Anna: Where?!

Jane: There I am, right THERE (pointing at Scott's eye and very adamant). See that twinkle? That's me, Daddy told me so.
