Making Lemonade

I'm a mom of 3, happily married and working part time. We live on a tight budget and I like to find creative ways to make it work. I like to post about my family, my crafts and my random thoughts! Enjoy!

I apologize to all my "loyal" fans for not posting in a while. I havn't really even taken any pictures lately because I've been so busy with the house. We closed almost three weeks ago and since then we've been crazy busy . First we had to grade out the walls with spackle, then prime, then paint. I have to pause here and THANK all those that helped us with the painting!! You are amazing friends!
So Then David ripped up the carpets and we spent what felt like an eternity pulling up those stupid annoying little staples. Some of them just WOULD'NT budge!! Then we rented the drum sander and sanded down the floors. Next we stained them this nice dark stain and then David put 3 coats of poly on them.They look amazing. we move in tomorrow and I am very excited. We still have a lot of work to do but we'll do it one step at a time!
