one unfinished project at a time.

I have decided to start writing about my days again for the zillionth time in my life it seems. I have switched from my old blog at wordpress (http://beersandpaintbrushes.wordpress.com/) and this blog is now born with the same name. It will be to track our home progress, just as beers and paint brushes began to. I am hoping it is something I will be excited to stick to. So much has happened since I posted almost half a year ago. I want to cover some projects we have worked on (Josh already is claiming a post about the kitchen cabinets to himself) but it is a lot to tackle in one post! I plan to do before and afters of some of our projects in different posts. For today, and my first post on this (hopefully) final blog I will have, I will recap the major stuff:

We got carpet! (and have a functioning bedroom complete with a bed and real curtains)

We got iPads!

We got a TON of snow!

We ran our first race in the Charlotte Race Series we signed up for AND won the costume contest.

One of my best friends got married.

I cut off all my hair (10+ inches) and donated it.

We bought a lawnmower.

I used a lawnmower for the first time ever.

aaaand......

We adopted a puppy :)

This is our new baby girl, Chili. 

She is becoming not so little! And I love her to death.

17 (school) days til summer vacation! Cannot wait! I'll get to spend every day with this girl and this house.
