Updates

Last weekend my parents took the kids to the river house... so fun.
Mike and I enjoyed a weekend to ourselves.  We went out to dinner both nights and I did little projects around the house.  Mike helped me hang a new shelf in the bathroom.  I painted our bath near the end of the winter after I painted our bedroom.  There was one wall left that needed something on it.  So I added a white shelf and the frame I painted.   
 I feel like that finishes up the updates to our bedroom and bathroom that I started in the winter.
Other parts that I don't think I posted... 
I'd also hung new curtains in the spring.
I used the drill all by myself for the first time!  Woohoo.  I have a new appreciation for why Mike kinda groans when I ask him to drill something for me... its just tedious... measuring, switching out bits and the screw driver part, etc.  Mom was here when I did it for back up.  ;)
 I found these curtain panels at PBK on clearance.  Yay!
And a cute green lamp from Target
 Our Moroccan lantern back in place.  I really LOVE the color its painted.  Its been 6 months or so and I still feel happy to see the change after a DARK blue room for 5 years!
 And here is the finished pink frame in Lily's room.  
We also added hooks for her to hang things on.  :)
We moved Lily's kitchen upstairs a while ago and put it in her dormer window area to make room for her doll house.  So I hung Grandma's sign over her kitchen there.  :)
 I re-painted half of our laundry room floor (terra cotta-ish) and found this fun rug at Target.
 And organized our bins a little.  That room can't be helped but so much... right, Mom?!?
 So fun to have a little extra time to do fun projects :)
