{Dresser Re-Do and House Update}

I finally was able to to start and finish a project this month!!! :)
Here is a dresser that I bought off craigslist and loved the details and curves
but really disliked the gold and red writing on the drawer fronts :)

BEFORE:




AFTER:
I decided that this dresser will serve as a buffet like table in our new dining room!! :)
And the drawers will be perfect for extra place settings, silverware, misc. and of course
the kids coloring stuff :) I love the olive green color!





Here's our house as of Saturday morning!! I am getting so excited!!
This week they are insulating!! :)

DID I MENTION HOW SICK OF WINTER I AM???? :)

{NO excuses}

So this week was a bit chilly in Idaho....like -34 degrees during the day...but I wasn't complaining, I got to stay indoors all day. Austin and the guys on the other hand were not so excited for the freezing weather. They just assumed that because it was a tad cold outside they could stay inside and do other things. I was nice and agreed to 1 day at home but after that when it warmed up to like 5 degrees I told them NO excuses (joking of course)...but look at the progress!!! We have our trusses up!! Here are some pics from the process!!




These are the trusses to the bonus room :)

GO PACKERS!!! We went over to Austin's parents house for the super bowl and of course the Packers won!!! And who could forget this little guy?? :) He's waving while sitting in a little
truck! :)
