Projects

Last week was the one year anniversary of buying our house! I actually can't believe how fast the time has gone. We have loved it here. We have a great ward and really wonderful neighbors and no major complaints about our house so I guess that's pretty good!

So after a whole year, we are FINALLY starting to decorate everything the way we (I) want it. Our walls have been bare for too long! I'm not much of a decorator, I mostly just copy things I see but it's been really fun. My friend Shelly introduced me to the wonderful world of vinyl decorations which I love! They are so easy to put on and look really nice, I think.

We're not done yet but already, everything is looking much better.

The biggest project was our kitchen. We had a huge plain wall behind our table that I never could figure out what to do with. So a couple of weeks ago, we painted it red! It took some getting used to but I really like the way it turned out. Just don't examine it too closely if you come over.

But the best home improvement by far is that we now have a piano! It's an electric piano so it's just a little bit smaller than a traditional one. We love it. It's actually really fun because it can sound like different instruments. I'm so happy Eliza discovered the drums. Although I feel like I'm learning how to play all over I am very happy to have a piano again! I've missed it. It's just a little crowded in our living room with it but I don't mind. Matt however feels like now is the perfect time to buy a new flatscreen to mount on the wall to free up some space. Ha! Nice try.

We love it! Thank you grandma!!
