I haven't posted any after pictures yet because there are so many other things that need to be done to the rooms first.

::The list of things to do::
scrape ceilings
install can lights
install lighting fixtures
buy/make curtains
hang artwork
hang shelving
paint furniture
Beadboard in the girls rooms

All of these things are being done on a tight budget. Paint has been the cheapest way to make the biggest impact. I love the colors that we chose. They are so calm and I feel will be enjoyed for years to come. I'll post the painted rooms tomorrow & then share the rest when everything is finished. Hopefully sooner than later :)

Locks of Love

Zoe has been begging to get her hair cut for quite a while now. I have a dear friend with a daughter that has short hair. Zoe has been begging for "Clarabeara hair" for well over
a year.

I talked to Zoe about where the hair would be going and I think she understood enough to realize she would be helping someone who was sick. That made her happy.

I think she was super happy to finally have her "Clarabeara hair".



She looks like such a big girl now. I almost cried when she got it cut. Almost.

Lost Things Found

Me:: What are you doing Zoe?
Zoe:: I'm making a trap.
Me:: Who are you trying to catch?
Zoe:: I'm making a trap for Peter Pan.

Me:: Zoe, where are you going?
Zoe:: I've got to catch him mom!

Me:: Did you find him?
Zoe:: Nope, still looking. Maybe I will catch him tonight.

I finally found my camera cord yesterday. You would laugh if I told you exactly where I found it. At the top of the box. The first cord I pulled out. No joke. So I figured over the next few days I will do my best to catch you up on everything. More pictures to come, I promise. Until then let's all make a wish that Zoe can find Peter Pan ;)
