pumpkins

I meant to post these from last weekend, but then we got sidetracked with a hospital visit. Lindsey wanted a fish pumpkin and a face pumpkin. Another post with baby photos to follow soon.

basically done

Finally, a railing
The bench with all the doors and pulls, TV and stereo. A cushion for the window will happen at some point.
Another family room view
We are moved into the computer desk
Bathroom and pseudo self-portrait

We unearthed a couple of Ikea bookshelves and quite a few boxes of books for the guest bedroom.

Lindsey got to hang up her pictures.... and her quilt!

3rd weekend project - Grandpa putting the patio back in. 108 pavers in the background

Several rows are inLindsey on the finished patio

an inside update

first, a shot of Lindsey ready to ride her bike

Baby wanted to come - she got to ride in the backpack

Here is our new pantry, which feels almost like a whole new kitchen

Most of the inside paint is done - looking at the computer nook

Some doors are up on the bench, and the light fixtures are installed

Looking out the east windows

It doesn't look very exciting, but today we hung the door between the kitchen and Lindsey's future room with a reverse swing. Lots of chiseling and adjusting....
